Jeff Gillette examines the aesthetic structures and visual patterns of human settlement, specifically that of shantytown style slums in India and South America. To the artist, there is something ineffable behind the obviously chaotic and desperate appearance of these places - a universality of human spirit and a strange beauty which comes out of the necessity and raw honesty of the will to survive.

Despite the seriousness of his observations, Gillette sees ironic and amusing juxtapositions that occur when Disney, corporate logos, and pop icons from consumer culture shows up as building blocks of shanty settlement construction. His works reflect these ironies as well as add a playful dimension to art historical relationships.

Jeff Gillette has been profiled by KCET Artbound in Los Angeles, as a follow up after he participated in Banksy's "Dismaland"in Weston-super-Mare, UK. CNN interviewed Jeff on video about his involvement. Channel 4 also has a segment featuring Jeff.
