I took inspiration for the Entangled series from the complex root system of a Bohdi tree. Symbolically, I correlated the interconnectedness of the tree's roots with the interconnectedness of personal life experiences. I thought of the word "roots" as also referring to one's place of origin and how our "roots" can inform our individuality, while simultaneously restricting and grounding us. The work relies on contrast and layering to convey its ideas and aims to illicit introspection in the viewer about the "roots" that have made up their own life.

Brett Melliar is a painter, currently based in California. As a painting aficionado, Brett utilizes all types of painting mediums and a large range of painting styles to orchestrate his visual symphonies, giving the work a collage-like appearance. The ideas influencing his work are inspired by the time he spent playing competitive basketball, baseball, and soccer year-around as a kid. The exposure to, and reinforcement of, winning from an early age has molded his competitive spirit in life, but to him, is not above being subject to his own introspection. Themes of competition, hierarchy, and mastery are important topics to his work; ones which he portrays in a serious manner, while simultaneously debunking through humor.
