Inspired by before and after photos of an Alaska River that has changed colors due to climate change.

Meet Justin Winkel, a self-taught multi-disciplinary artist and founder of Winkel Gallery. His work serves as a powerful antidote to the enduring impact of grief and loss, through the healing of his nature inspired abstracts. Justin is known for his prolific, varied, and widely intimate painting practice. He has tested the boundaries of color, form, texture through abstraction. Justin explores the intersection of painting, sculpture and photography, making extremely gestured art that is rich in color and texture. Justin often works at a monumental scale and one of his most significant innovations may be his reversed painted glass art and sculptures. Layering and erasure are often critical to his practice. Justin's fused artistic practice is centered around a common theme—the duality of the preservation of nature and oneself.
