The inspiration for Bryan Cunningham’s “Wander Lost” was born in a road trip across the continental United States. Early in the journey, Cunningham observed that the stopping points along the American highway had become gentrified with megastores and chain restaurants. Each exit mirrored the last, instilling an omnipresent sense of Deja Vu. Cunningham decided to switch courses and explored the forgotten routes that the highways had replaced. Here he found the mom & pop diners, picturesque motels and backyard shrines (to anonymous deities) that gave an indigenous face back to the road. The vision, knuckles and know-how that went into each of these oft-abandoned roadside attractions carries the haunting stain of its creator -producing a duality of being both inanimate and living at the same time.

Bryan (aka Mutie) uses his skills in painting, silk screening and wood working to create unique mixed media assemblages. He begins with a loose, canvas painting. Next the work is set with grommets and stretched in a hand crafted frame made from recycled wood and found objects. In the final step, Cunningham incorporates his knowledge of vintage sign painting and carving to make each frame design unique.

Bryan Cunningham is a self-taught impressionist born in Detroit and raised in the back woods of southeast Michigan. His art has received both National Merit and Congressional recognition.
