PAUL WALLACE, born and raised in Baltimore, is a sculptor and a filmmaker. His art, over thirty works of video and sculptural installation, has been curated at commercial galleries and screened internationally. His work is of a semiotic spirituality – it uses language, mythology, and critical theory to access a structural understanding of what it means to be human, all while circulating around a personal poetic. His projects focus on the structure of lack, its physiological and psychoanalytic manifestations, and its material expressions within language, desire, and faith. Wallace has lived as an artist and a writer in LA, New York, New Orleans, Providence and Prague. He has recently completed his first feature film, entitled “THE FACE,” which enjoyed a festival run after premiering at the Rhode Island International Film Festival. After graduating from Brown University in 2008 with a BA in Semiotics, he went on to be the assistant director and director of photography on the newest installments of “The Port Huron Project,” curated by Creative Time in NYC. He is currently writing and directing an original web series entitled “AION” while living and working in Venice, CA.
