Huber’s collages and paintings are composed of an array of disparate images and materials. He begins with a thickly sculpted gesso ground that becomes the background for a collage of found lists, scraps of paper with diagrams, doodles and other personal notations, images from magazines, drawings and paint.

Huber’s work has been exhibited throughout the Hudson Valley, in New York City and New England, as well as in Montrea. Huber received a BFA from the School of Visual Arts in New York. He currently lives in Cold Spring.
