The Free Radical Series
"7-ELEVEN is the very paradigm of convenience. And striving for ever more convenience is the driving force behind all the progress of humankind, it is what binds us together as a species. It encompasses both the mundane and the supernal. The slogan “Oh, Thank Heaven! It’s 7-ELEVEN!” seals 7-ELEVEN as the pragmatic manifestation of the deity. Here is the essence and flower of humanity available to whomsoever 24/7 forever and ever!" - excerpt from Herbert Russell's interview with Icarus. To read more, click here.

"Is there a double-entendre in Free Radical?"
"Double-entendre for un-PAIRED electrons? Yes, the phrase Free Radical does have a double-entendre because we are Americans and we are free and we have become very radicalized, I believe. Free Radical. It speaks to being an American at this moment in time." - excerpt from Herbert Russell's interview with Icarus. To read more, click here.

"Free Radical uses gestural abstraction as your means of expression, what are some of the creative advantages and challenges that you’ve found working in this style that are different from the way you’ve done things in the past?"
"It is much quicker and freer than my previous style, that’s the great advantage. A disadvantage is that it’s also very haphazard and makes for a lot of paint fixing elements that should not be." - excerpt from Herbert Russell's interview with Icarus. To read more, click here.
