Ryan Gianelloni, 2010 graduate of the University of New Orleans BFA program, utilizes both natural and found objects to bring texture and depth to otherwise flat surfaces. Often, these objects are inclusive of bamboo, string, and other collected materials. He then finishes the work experimenting with metallic leaf. He is currently the apprentice and assistant of George Dunbar in Slidell, LA. Gianelloni states, “I find myself drawn to the same things that inspire my mentor. Nature plays a big role in what makes our creativity flow,” he also says, “It’s difficult to put a label on my work. I feel it is continually evolving and I am constantly pulling from all disciplines.” Gianelloni’s work has been part of the 2018 juried Ogden Museum of Southern Art’s “Louisiana Contemporary” show where only 25 artists were selected from the entire state.
