    Davies is a native of Champaign and is an accomplished artist of over 25 years whose work can be seen throughout the country. Influenced by his experience travelling with the circuses and carnivals in the 1970’s, this retrospective focuses on his banner paintings that allowed him to express his mysterious narratives through a personal visual language. Responding to the loose canvas format in that it relates to the kind of signage commonly associated with carnival attractions, fraternal lodge rituals, and medieval religious pilgrimages, he relates life experience as a moral drama, played out in a public forum.
