Daryl Thetford Bull
About the Item
After a 15-year career in behavioral health, Daryl Thetford has returned to art and created a compelling body of photo-collage work that is informed by the richness of the psyche.
Growing up on a hundred-acre farm in the small town of Bradford in the rural northwest corner of Tennessee, Thetford was always encouraged to pursue so-called “practical” avenues of work. However, his father, a forklift operator, and his mother, a beautician, recognized early on a certain artistic bent in their son. To Thetford’s delight, they enrolled him in oil painting lessons at age 9.
Thetford went on to obtain a graduate degree in counseling from Murray State University and began his career working as a vocational program director, mental health center manager, and therapist. But, his creative juices never dried up. In 2001, Thetford retired as a therapist and returned to his first love: art. He quickly discovered that the psychology of behavior and emotion—what he’d spent years studying and practicing—flowed naturally into his artistic process.
Thetford begins with an original edited photograph. He then digitally layers hundreds of other original images to create a full, cohesive composition. The entire process takes an average of 40 hours. The resulting images range from culturally familiar individual pieces—such as bikes, cowboys, guitars, cityscapes—to his more esoteric series based on man's inner struggle with modern society or the human sense of isolation in the noise of the modern world.
Daryl currently lives with his wife, writer and artist Dana Shavin, in Chattanooga, Tennessee. They enjoy travel, great food, great art, and the company of good friends.

- Large Animal Wall Sculpture: 'Wormhole'By Gin StoneLocated in New York, NY'I am a multidisciplinary artist with a focus on ecofeminism using fiber and mixed media constructions. My materials include hand-dyed commercially fished line and ghost gear, recycled and antique textiles, fabric printed with cyanotype emulsions and found objects. I change the existing surface of recognizable animals by creating a veneer of unexpected color and imagery. This forces the viewer to consider the shape more carefully by visually exploring its new topography. The creation process can be likened to painting with fiber (that has been tinted with hand-mixed dyes) on a three-dimensional canvas. Intense work is spent creating the eyes and ears to convey the emotion of each animal. I look to the work of Joan Mitchell and The Quilters of Gee’s Bend as inspiration for pattern and color, as well as charts, iconography, and satellite imaging.' -Gin Stone...Category

- Shopping Cart: 'The Great Resignation Baggage Cart, Emotional Baggage Cart'By Theda SandifordLocated in New York, NY'My Emotional Baggage Carts are vessels to dispose of racial trauma. The act of making, weaves the sting of macro and microaggressions into the cart, freeing me from these constraints. Each recovered shopping cart is unique, but they all are woven with upcycled materials like rope, paracord, grocery bags, rope lights, beads, fabric, and bottle caps. The cart is with a protective zip tie blanket to trap trauma and prevent its escape. For me, my Emotional Baggage Carts are a release, for you, they are an opportunity to look within and recognize any emotional baggage you, yourself may be carrying and release it.'
