Ruminating on the cathedral of space, the structures that
guide our concept of time and meaning, the orbit of the
earth around the sun, the spinning of the earth on an axis,
and the orbit of the moon around the earth, the artist finds
any number of cycles and 'frames' to life.

Greg King is a filmmaker and multimedia artist based out of
Los Angeles, King has wide-ranging experience in a number
of artistic disciplines, as he is restless and easily distracted.
He received his BFA at the Kansas City Art Institute, and then
ran a small offset-printing business in Chicago called One Ton Press making artist books, poetry collections, and CD booklets for indie rock bands. During this time he also led several large-scale outdoor mural projects with disadvantaged youth for a number of Christian and non-profit institutions.

As a visual artist, King has exhibited widely in venues across
the country and abroad, including the Corcoran Gallery, in Washington DC. He holds an MFA from Hunter College.

In 2010, Greg was contacted by the set decorator for the wildly popular film saga Twilight, to have his visual art featured as set decor in the concluding chapters of the series, titled Breaking Dawn. Several art works hung in the Cullen house set and are visible as backdrop in many scenes.
