Mark Frossard (He/Him)
Mark Frossard is a contemporary artist whose work blends graphic clarity, expressive color, and personal storytelling into a dynamic visual language shaped by both movement and lived experience. Based in Santa Fe, New Mexico, Frossard approaches artmaking as an extension of a multidisciplinary creative life — one informed by performance, embodiment, and an ongoing exploration of transformation and resilience.
Working primarily in acrylic painting, Frossard creates bold, stylized compositions that reinterpret imagery through a contemporary lens. Drawing inspiration from pop art traditions, graphic design, and everyday visual culture, his work often begins with reference material that is translated into simplified forms, vibrant palettes, and strong compositional structure. This process creates paintings that feel both accessible and emotionally charged — balancing playful energy with deeper narrative undertones.
Central to Frossard’s practice is the relationship between movement and image. With a background rooted in creative movement and embodied practice, his work reflects an understanding of rhythm, gesture, and physical presence. Each painting evolves through an intuitive process, allowing experimentation and spontaneity to coexist with careful design decisions.
Themes of personal evolution, identity, and emotional honesty frequently emerge throughout his work. His paintings invite viewers into moments of connection — spaces where humor, vulnerability, and reflection intersect. Rather than seeking perfection, Frossard embraces authenticity, creating work that feels human, immediate, and sincere.
As his artistic practice continues to evolve, Mark Frossard remains committed to creating art that celebrates transformation and connection. Whether exhibited in gallery contexts or shared through digital platforms, his work reflects a dedication to expression, exploration, and the ongoing journey of creative self-discovery.
