Seyo Cizmic is a contemporary artist based in San Diego, CA. His education includes an MFA, specializing in painting. (http://www.seyocizmic.com/) ...My work is influenced by the images and iconography from popular, contemporary culture, including advertising, music, television and magazines. I have a compelling drive to create images which explore, illustrate and express my personal thoughts and feelings. My work embodies a passionate response to the human condition: the comedies and tragedies of life and all of the wonderful experiences in between.

Religion and war are recurrent themes, usually connected to highlight the cause and effect, as well as the true intentions and rewards behind the official discourses of dishonest empowerment, cherishing violence in the name of greed. Once the false ‘heroes’ are revealed, authority can be disputed and dismissed, as in the case of ‘Everyone Has a Song in Their Hearts’. And perhaps in this lies the greatness of the artist’s endeavor, guiding us to finally hear the inner song, note by note until lucidity overcomes dissonance.
