Jordan Eagles Blood Medium

It's blood.  NYC artist, Jordan Eagles, works solely with gallons upon gallons of blood obtained from a slaughterhouse.  By manipulating the blood through heating, burning, aging, mixing with copper, adding foreign materials, and then encasing it in plexiglass and UV resin, Jordan is able to capture an array of organic designs.  His large pieces are uncomfortably beautiful, especially when lit, the blood seems to glow against the clean white walls of a gallery.View all of Jordan Eagles' work at jordaneagles.com. Current and upcoming shows of Jordan Eagles:April 5, 2012 – May 25, 2012HAEMOSCURO--SOLO EXHIBITIONMark Wolfe Contemporary Art1 Sutter Street, Suite 300  San Francisco, CA 94104www.wolfecontemporary.com May 3, 2012 – May 6, 2012 PULSE NEW YORK–IMPULSE (SOLO)The Metropolitan Pavilion125 West 18th Street Chelsea, New York, NY 10011Causey Contemporarywww.pulse-art.com www.causeycontemporary.com February 1, 2013 – July 2, 2013THE BLOOD IS THE LIFE: VAMPIRES IN ART & NATUREEverhart Museum1901 Mulberry StreetScranton, PA 18510-2390570-346-7186www.everhart-museum.org [spotted by Michael Goodman]
