"Sculptor Jody Cramer is refreshingly upbeat in another, more formal abstract manner, creating intricate chromatic interactions with assemblages that suggest a kind of 3-D pointillism. The optical effect of pieces such as Cramer's 'Tulip,' and 'Diamond' suggests Seurat's brilliant dots of color escaping the canvas and dancing joyfully in thin air." - Gallery and Studio Magazine, October 2013

Artist Statement
“I strive to create art that is non-static with a multi-dimensional and shape-shifting quality. I want the viewer to participate in the metamorphosis and dynamic nature of my artwork. My goal is a visual alchemy that melds color, light, shadows, form, negative space and pattern into an energetic totality. The holographic medium adds some magic and mystery into the mix. As Larry Poons stated about his art it is ‘food for the retina, and optically alive.' For me it is like Shinobu Ishihara meets Ben-Day Dots with a nod to pointillism. I hope my artwork invites the viewer to pause, ponder from up close and from a distance, even observing from the sides, allowing each visitor to connect the dots…”
