April 21, 2010
By: O. J. Cunningham
As an artist, Dwayne Szot is emotionally and aesthetically attracted to machines and the marks they make, the human quality of machines, and the two as extensions and aspects of each other.
Szot?s early work focused on machines as physical, creative extensions of himself. He created many fantastical machines while finishing his master's degree in sculpture at Cranbrook Academy of Arts in Michigan.
In 1990, Szot received a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts and created the first wheelchair-painting machine, Project Mobility, which has grown into Zot Artz, a national program.
