Peace all I am "Dre" (Noble Dre-Ali) a visual artist hailing from The Bronx, NYC. I consider my works as spiritual pop art, by utilizing popular cultural imagery and infusing it with spiritual symbolism. My aim is to connect the ancient with the future beautifully. Within my creative process I pull from history, ancient civilizations, comics books, mythology, science fiction, music, and religion to create a harmony between juxtaposed ideology and imagery. With my BA in Studio Art from CUNY, it allowed me to create comfortably in multiple mediums such as: screen printing, sculpture, video editing/production, photography, computer animation, painting, drawing, stencils and collage. Art & more I embody the true spirit of an artist with my abilities going way beyond the visual arts. I’m highly proficient in the Martial Arts (3rd degree black belt) with close to 30 years of training. In Culinary Arts more than 20 years’ experience, 1st beginning as a dish washer and working my way up to Cook. Employed as Cook and kitchen manager for multiple restaurants. My latest venture is into the Healing Arts and the cultivation of internal energy. I have been practicing Qi Gong regularly and have attained my Reiki practitioner 2 Certification. I find that the more I expand myself artistically the greater I become in each form of Art!
