Scott McDuffee. Beyond the Hurting, 2020. 16″ x 20″ Acrylic, mixed media on canvas. $227
Born in Grand Rapids, MI, Scott McDuffee’s climb from factory worker a Director of Corporate Transformation laid the foundation for his artistic practice. Like many, he rediscovered his creative passion later in life; learning to trust “intuition and process” through an abstract art workshop he took in Detroit a few years ago. Inspired by years of corporate travel, views from his window from one factory to another, various cultures, points-of-view, and flavors, as well as architecture, arts, and music, McDuffee brings the same climbing-the-ladder exuberance, experimental approach, and collaborative nature into Abstract Expressionism. The colors, textures, and gestures in his industrial and urban influenced canvases reveal his desire to figure out the rules just well enough to playfully break them. For McDuffee, being able to engage with people and utilize creative processes is hugely important, regardless of industry. As part of the Detroit Arts community through sharing his art, collecting other artists, mentoring and collaborating, his exploration as an Artist & Detroiter is just beginning.
