About the art
Artist statement
'Blue Birds'
January 2019
From the "Retro Fantastic" series, that was part of a group show at the Dutch Design Hotel, Artemis in Amsterdam, Netherlands in 2019.
The artist worked on the theme of the fantastic 50s and 60s.
Those were the days; the future was promising.
"From nowadays, reality I look back to the rise of capitalism and consumerism with a nostalgic and critical eye. "
In the series, images of the good old days are set against a different reality.
Tales of hope and glory when men conquered space, science was the future, bombs were power games and plastic was fantastic.
Mixed Media composition on 120 x 120 cm canvas.
Collage transfer and paint.
Acrylic paint, glue, paper, ink, pen, pastels and felt pens.
The original paper on paper collage composition is enlarged, mirrored, printed and transferred to canvas and then finished with pastels and paint.
The worn aspect reminds us of a vintage Bill Board.
Each work in this series is an original unique artwork, with specific 'pop art' use of means of reproduction and techniques.
