About US
I am Lorenz Rambo the artist with the human name Charles Rambo, who uniquely struggles from schizo-affective disorder, according to the scientific equations of the doctors. Experienced in poverty, mental health care consumerism, and the long drudgery of obtaining an Associate's degree through California's educational system. Attended UC Davis (Political Science), Sac City (Literature), and finally find myself reaching the completed goal through my studies at Palomar (Photography).
I write, philosophize, and photograph. I also wage a war for and against romanticism. I possess a violent, while yet practical . . . mind. Madness defines me: a schism between ideality and reality with a tinge of anger accompanying it. A solipsist and existentialist, who compels his being into becoming's aesthetic demonstrations for translatable productions. I've been accused of highly stylized productions, yet . . . this stranger tempts his own danger as displayed in his history recounted in literary exploits (Dream Thinking) and now confounds the populace with aesthetic attempts into productions founded upon the thing not exploited: my experience amalgamated with a sick sense of thoughtful humor.
Artist Statement:
My aesthetic labor focuses on the psychological riddles I suffer through existing. Educated in the school of Nietzsche and the misguided attempts of aesthetic demonstrations by early Existentialists: I play with blood and my experience, only to confound myself afterwards through aesthetic productions translating the experience into the said aesthetic productions. I am the subject of my labors and inspect the landscape of being and becoming through the lens of my consciousness. My photographs are attempts to present conceptual visuals merged with language in the display of my existence, so as to really define the emerging post-modern phenomenon for which is this unique personality regarding aesthetics.
