Bill Wright, born in Bridgeport, CT graduated from the Colorado art Institute in 2000. After working in the commercial photography industry for a decade he embarked on a monumental artistic project. VETS, an achingly beautiful and personal series of Veterans of War, has traveled through out the country most notable exhibited at the Statehouse in Boston Massachusetts and Pentagon in Washington DC in 2012. Recent projects include Papermakers, a portrait series of the employees of Crane Paper Company; and currently, “The Answer is Never the Answer”. His work professes an honesty we rarely see, primarily using portraits as his starting point he evokes and unveils a truth in his subjects that transcend the light of everyday life. We see the familiar but it is rendered extraordinary.
in 2013, Sienna Patti Contemporary will present “The Answer is Never The Answer”, a emotional and authentic series of twelve pieces investigating his memories of his mother’s intense and at times disturbing life.
