Robert Kushner’s artwork centers around ornamentation and decoration. His paintings of organic material abstracted and graphically depicted are influenced by European textiles and global artists. “I never get tired of pursuing new ideas in the realm of ornamentation. Decoration, an abjectly pejorative dismissal for many, is a very big, somewhat defiant declaration for me…The eye can wander, the mind think unencumbered through visual realms that are expansively and emotionally rich. Decoration has always had its own agenda, the sincere and unabashed offering of pleasure and solace,” he said.
