Al Hooks — The Wiggle

Why it surfaced

Al Hooks turns working harbors, old highways, piers, and New Orleans architecture into a catalog of memory rather than documentation. The site gives the method a name—the “wiggle”—and pairs its distinctive voice with a substantial body of work, including custom canvases reaching four by six feet.

A Mississippi Gulf Coast art practice that reshapes familiar coastal places through color, rhythm, and memory.
