“I became interested in photography with the digital revolution around 2000. I found photography to be a spontaneous medium that enabled me to create rich, abstract images while revealing details that are difficult to see with the naked eye. Over the years, my subject matter has evolved. As I began photographing wildlife, I became interested in capturing the personalities of the animals, not merely their abstract beauty. This has enabled me to create images that are engaging on many emotional levels while retaining many abstract qualities.”

KEN MABREY

Mabrey's documentations of urban and domestic scenes continue the tradition of early 20th century American realist painting represented in the work of artists such as Edward Hopper and Reginald Marsh. Mabrey's contemporary painting is known for its vibrant, active composition and palette, while the moody, vacant street scenes are typically on the artist's work immediately following the completion of his graduate degree. Mabrey began exhibiting in the early 1980s and garnering grants and awards soon after.
