Greg Carideo
June 3rd, 2025

“Won’t you let me see your naked body?” demands Leonard Cohen from Greg Carideo’s mixtape about looking and being seen. “They cannot see me naked,” replies Michael Stipe; Anohni and Yoko Ono weigh in. My delightful conversation with artist Greg Carideo traverses topics from Elliott Smith’s appearance on a demented FX morning show in 1995 to the close relationship between Lana Del Rey’s “Blue Bannisters” and Greg’s own work.

Carideo transforms steel, old t-shirts, bits of scrap metal, and other shopworn fragments into tabernacles of urban life. Each sculpture is a little world, a structure that carries narrative, materiality, and vernacular forms of architecture and adornment—ghostly bodegas, ramshackle duplexes, basilica-shaped cuchifritos.

For Carideo, collecting—impressions, images, writing—is a major part of his process. We talk about how his use of found objects, each one a little history of wear and tear, is a reflection of collected ideas and shapes that he transforms into palimpsests of time, material, and thought. We discuss all of this and more in this wide-ranging exploration of materiality, will, lyrics, and looking.
