Artist: Jonathan Pellitteri | Location: Davidson, NC
Davidson, NC
Jonathan Pellitteri was raised outside of Boston, Massachusetts where he was introduced to construction by his father (an architect) and his grandfather (a mason). Pellitteri was drawn to the physical nature of construction and pursued a career as a carpenter before returning to school for formal art training. Lessons learned in school and in the trades weigh heavily on the methods and materials he uses in his sculptures. By leaving his native New England, Pellitteri was able to find inspiration in the cultures and landscapes of the upper Midwest, Deep South, and the Carolina Piedmont. Time spent exploring the U.S. has provided an invaluable supply of imagery from which Pellitteri draws on to develop his sculptures and drawings that foster viewers’ curiosity in the environment and how we interact with it.
