William Stamos Bio & Statement
"My process of art making is intuitive, spontaneous, and trance-like - I will often “lose” myself and “find” myself at the same time. The journey becomes the destination.
My belief is that art has the power to transform both the artist and the viewer, through a “transcendental alchemy”, towards a heightened awareness of the universe, and our place in it - a “cosmic connection” which gives our lives added depth and meaning."
William Stamos has been painting and drawing for as long as he can remember. As a child attending Orthodox church services, he was mesmerized by statues, paintings, and icons, seen through the haze of burning incense. In elementary school, he was inspired and excited by an art appreciation program that introduced him to the study of artists and art history. His continued
interest in both science and spirituality informs his work. Born in Rockville Centre, Long Island, he grew up in central Pennsylvania, and has lived in Los Angeles, Ca., and New York City. He graduated Summa Cum Laude with a BFA from Penn State University in 1994, and has lived in Jersey City, NJ, since 1995.
