Description
“Jesus Christ shows us his heart, but it blows up in his face, drenching him in blood like that spilled for centuries by twisters of his words. Like Wiley Coyote, he reacts with sad incredulity.”
Digital Compositor: Isabella McCarthy
Music: John Fahey, Fanfare
[James Romberger]
James Romberger is a true maverick of mediums, and may be the only artist in history to have his works featured in both the pages of Marvel comics and the permanent collection of New York’s MET Museum. As one of the most celebrated artists of New York’s 1980s East Village scene, he cultivated a style renowned for its gritty realism and dark allure that has been featured across fine arts, comic books, TV shows, and now web3.
For his first digital collection with OrangeHare, Romberger applies the same approach toward exploring the symbolism and contemporary meaning behind religious iconography, a subject of fascination for the artist.
