andreas amador




Andreas Amador is a rising Robert Smithson of the Land Art Movement. A San Francisco Earthworks artist, Amador is known for the tattoos he etches on beachscapes.  Working against time, he orchestrates his art form in an ebbed static before it is consumed by the tide.

"nothing good happens after midnight"

....were the words my father affixed to my social epitaph in high school.



There is always a temptation to embellish the fundamentals of necessity with excess.

In design, a sotto voce perspective takes achieved skill.

I'm in awe of those who can convey restrained volume in their work.
