About Thomas Deininger

Thomas Deininger (b.1970) is a critically acclaimed Rhode Island artist that combines his love for the natural world and environmental concerns with his passion for painting and sculpture by constructing found object assemblages that address issues of mass consumerism and the disposable materials that we use briefly and cast aside.  His work engages the viewer by highlighting a poetic resourcefulness and explores the potential that lies in the mundane.  Deininger also admits that is serves as a healthy solution to his pack rat tendencies and hunter-gatherer impulses that he has not been able to evolve past. His work can be found in public and private collections through out the world.
