Doug Rochelle: Face Time

Published: April 28, 2012

Doug Rochelle’s ceramic sculptures and masks, as well as his Subway Drawings, will be on view in the gallery May 5–27. The opening reception will be on Friday, May 4th from 6–8 pm.

About the Artist
Doug Rochelle came to New York in 2001 from Kansas City and got a job as a waiter, working nights. Doug joined the LaMano Pottery Studio in August 2001. After work, and inspired by what he calls “the madness and mayhem of working the graveyard shift… where fights, barf, homeless and drunks cyclone the edge” Doug would decompress at the studio by creating his haunting ceramic images until the wee hours of the morning.
