About The Artwork
The juxtaposition of innocence and intensity within the imagery creates a distinctive tension, drawing the audience into its world. An important part of the piece lies the interaction between tape and concrete. These materials play a crucial role in the interplay between the transient and the lasting. This discussion around materials goes beyond aesthetics; it forms a link between the intangible flow of time and the tangible weight of place. Concrete, symbolizing permanence, acts as a poignant reminder of its omnipresence in the realm of construction—an even more profound connection due to material sourcing from construction sites. The process of crafting "I'm Not Your Dog" demands urgency. It involves a delicate dance with the materials due to their time-sensitive nature. The tactile qualities of these elements require a swift and instinctive approach. Overworking them risks losing their flexibility, an intrinsic aspect of the artwork's essence. This fragility and fleeting nature imbue the piece with a sense of impermanence, akin to a fleeting moment captured on canvas. The materials echo the transience of emotions. Observing the artwork becomes an exploration of the disregarded and discarded. The ephemeral materials employed in its creation are often dismissed, yet they are utilized for their temporary beauty to make an unforgettable statement. "I'm Not Your Dog" attests to revealing the profound within the ordinary, urging viewers to value the unnoticed facets of existence. The artwork encapsulates the convergence of time, emotion, and materiality. Through a meticulous choreography of materials and imagery, it captures the fragility of the moment while grounding it in the enduring presence of concrete. The viewer is encouraged to reevaluate their perceptions of materials, emotions, and the passage of time. .

United States
Cody Bayne is an Artist based in Los Angeles. He has exhibited his work extensively across the United States, Canada, and Europe, and is known for his interdisciplinary approach to art-making. His practice encompasses painting, mixed media, sculpture, and new media, all of which he uses to explore themes of time, impermanence, identity, and place. Bayne's work is characterized by a personal visual language that creates intellectual and emotional connections with the viewer. He often uses materials sourced from various cities around the world to create a visual vernacular that is both familiar and foreign. His work is influenced by 20th-century art movements such as Nouveau Réalisme and Art Informel, and he has coined the terms Neo-Urban Expressionism and Urban Informalism as quantifiers for his physical practice. Bayne's artistic process involves "harvesting" information from the environment of the city and reassembling materials into compositions that reflect his interest in the beauty of flaws and the discarded. He balances formulaic parameters with action-oriented processes, and allows immediacy and accidental interventions to play a strong role in the making of his work. His artist hand is discernible in all his work, serving as a symbol of both humanity and the distressed conditions and environments that inspire him. Though Bayne does not intentionally approach his work through a filter of social commentary, he is keenly aware that the poetry of the metropolis leads to this conversation. His work is contemporary and academic, addressing impermanence, coded vernaculars, identity, and place. Through his art, Bayne strives to create a visual dialogue that transposes from walls, streets, and a personal language, and fosters a connection between contemporary art and cultural intersectionality.
