Jonathan DeDecker, “Infinity Land”

This Tucson native’s funky cartoonish figure paintings are consistent with a widespread trend among millennial artists who raid outsider art, along with the more obscure reaches of pop culture, for their work. What sets DeDecker apart, however, are thickly built up surfaces collaged with an all-over debris field that comprises slats from discarded venetian blinds, plastic toys, crushed soda cans and presumably anything else he can get his hands on. The images limned over this mess include characters who appear to be cavorting with joy, though you get the nagging sensation that their exuberance may be irrational if not delusional.
