THE ART OF THE PIN
Negative space is something created by emptiness. It is the something defined by nothing.
People see space, I as an artist see a canvas for creativity. My medium? Pin artwork, where light, shadow and form combine. In a world where the third dimension is a plane for experimentation, my art form has evolved and developed into an innovative “pin” technique translating my ideas into artworks.
This unique medium derives inspiration from pop art / op art movements and every-day items that people can relate to. Yes, the artwork is “interesting” and “eye catching” – but one must look beyond the external layer to fully understand the message conveyed.
A soft silhouette crafted with hard-edge office pins. Scrutinise the eruption of colour emanating from the pins and notice a pinhead or two selectively encrusted with SWAROVSKI® CRYSTALS adding a sophisticated-yet-understated “bling” effect to the art piece.
The visual impact and message conveyed, combined with subtle criticism of our consumer culture, questionable democracy and social constraints make for a fascinating eye catching collection that simultaneously stimulates the mind. less
