Douglas Leon Prince is an artist whose main interests are painting and, “chronotopes” or how temporal-spatial relationships are expressed. The term, originally used in mathematics, comes from “chronos” meaning “time” and “topos” meaning “space”.
Russian literary theorist Mikhail Bakhtin (1895–1975) used the mathematics term “chronotope” to describe literature. Douglas Prince has borrowed this concept for art. Through his travels, Douglas has realized that creative works are broadly a result of time and place. This inescapable providence influences creators more than is often acknowledged. Bound to this fate, Douglas’s goal is not focused on paths outside of these trappings but to acknowledge and explore them.
A commercial art professional, primarily in entertainment and games/VR, Douglas has contributed to and or art directed projects in multiple studios in North and South America and Europe. Some of this work can be seen at https://www.artstation.com/studiofabuloso.
He now lives and paints in Wiesbaden, Germany, not too far from where his great, great Grandfather, Authur Hutschenreuther was a painter at the turn of the last century.
“I have been an artist as long as I can remember. My mother painted when I was young, so it Instilled within me an interest in art. I worked in commercial art, advertising, and the music industry in Austin Texas before eventually entering the burgeoning world of digital art and games. I found my place in the games industry and was fortunate as it took me all over the planet. A friend once referred to me as the, “Box Car Willie” of the games industry.”
“I am a wanderer, fascinated with each step of this journey. Come on, Ajax, we are probably late.”
