Reid Trevarthen is a multimedia artist who graduated from Evergreen State College in the past year. He is also a studio artist at North Bank, and he invites guests to view his creative process during First Friday Artwalk events by keeping his studio open. His process of weaving together meticulously cut strips of magazine pages into astonishingly accurate and intimate portraits is truly original.  Both the work and the process are something to be seen.

“What is most exciting to me about my current collage work is the near completeness with which it embodies my feelings about the universe, our planet, art and myself. I am fascinated with the simultaneity of events. Said differently, everything is happening at the same time, everywhere. We sometimes forget this, because we each feel like our existence is somehow essential to the flow of time. For example, in school I was always greatly affected by sick days. It was hard for me to accept that my classmates were doing things I wouldn’t know about, but which would affect me when I returned to school the next day. By collaging from photographs of life on Earth, past and present, I am physically uniting all the world’s experiences into something that I feel is beautiful and I am proud of.” 

Born in 1990, and a life-long resident of the Pacific Northwest, Reid Trevarthen uses the medium of collage to visualize the interconnected and complex relationships between people, the planet, and the universe as a whole. His techniques, though self-taught, draw inspiration from the work of Chuck Close, Jasper Johns and Dali, among others. Trevarthen is a graduate of The Evergreen State College.
