Splitting his time between New York and Memphis, Herbert is inspired and activated by place. The exploration and movement between two drastically different environments has shaped the core of his practice for over thirty years. His dynamic process employs mark-making and layering to integrate digital prints, graffiti-like gestures and bold color into dynamic compositions.
