Krystofer PT
Krystofer PT is a digital concept artist with a compelling creative edge. He has journeyed from punk rock musician to brand executive and most recently to artist and author.
The objective of his music, brand development, art, and writing is and always has been to create work that transcends its exterior aesthetic to reveal the “reality within.”
Krystofer has created an extensive body of visual, fictional, and editorial content that has appeared in such publications as the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and Black Mountain Press.
His latest project, DollFace, is a series of facial photographs extracting and exposing the wildly beguiling essence of dolls with attitude.
He has also developed two adjacent series: FactoryMade, re-envisioning mechanical artifacts of the industrial age; and StreetWise, serving up slices of abstracted graffiti from around the world.
Naked Grin is a collection of stories chronicling not just what, where, when and how, but taking on the ultimate existential question, “why?”
Unsparing conceptual fiction at the crossroads of bare-knuckle intellectuality and hot carnal realness, these works superimpose the seen upon the unseen, the known upon the uncharted, the grace of God upon the perversity of the human condition.
As the story “Moonstruck Jesus” concludes, “it is an inexorable reality that memories fade, until there are just a few essential images left hung on the wall of the mind’s eye. Hours and days and years pass as Willie and Jonathan each pursue a separate destiny. Yet, that night remains indelibly etched upon the fragile gray tissue behind both pairs of clear, resolute eyes locked safely together in the narrow salvation of everyday life.”
