DURAND SEAY
Lives and works in Montgomery, AL United States

A deep-south Alabama artist and architect, 63 years old, Durand
Seay escapes from traditions that label artists by location. His
paintings offer a plastic, flowing, and unpredictable expression,
ever changing, like water in a stream.
As an architect, Seay delivers an understanding of space and
the movement within. Time and movement are essential factors
which affects the participant. He builds these expressions from
structures intuitively found in nature. There is a language with a
quantum perspective, past, present, and future all at once. Like
the fluidity of waves he harnesses a viewer’s subconscious to
instill awareness, insight, achievement and the ascendancy of
understanding.
With numerous exhibitions all over the southeast since 1978, Seay
receives consistent award recognition such as Directors Award,
LaGrange Biennial 2016.
Recognized for his talents in the kitchen, he enjoys preparing
meals only as a chef can. Additionally, he designs jewellery utilizing
organic structures like vine wreaths or tangled seaweed.
