LOCAL ARTIST Neil Ledoux
TITLE Pigna (60" x 48", oil on canvas)
STORY This is part of a series based on a hallucinatory memory LeDoux imagined during his childhood. He recounted seeing a fountain in the thick Louisiana forests. The fountain’s beauty was so astonishing that he immediately wanted to share it with his friends and family, but when he took them back to see it, it was nowhere to be found.
BIO LeDoux was born in 1976 in Louisiana. He is currently a BFA candidate at California College of the Arts.
