From Desing:

To Blank Wire Mesh:

To actually blending and scultping:







Will finish this production in max 2 weeks from now and currently setting up my art works in an assembly line. Part of each job will be planned and complete before I Start the next step to each one. As I took this straight from work as a line cook. Its easier and more efficient to have the art work transfer through steps instead of tacking things organically messy.

Work Update

All of my concept work and projects that ive been working on. Max 2 weeks on each design since ive gained more free time and can do a lot more after school. 

Banksy - Text and Image

Banksy is a street artist and well know for his works such as  "Banksy of England." which is a play on words of "Bank of England" from the art work of a picture of the Queen's head. He was a free hand graffiti artist whose first big work was "The Mild Mild West" Painting. Moving to political views he painted 9 creations to the Israeli West Bank Wall. Another stunt of his was documented and made its debut in 2010 in the Sundance Film Festival. He was nominated for an academy award. The Documentary tells a story about an immigrant from France named Theirry Guetta and his street art. The biggest stunt and most popular followed to banksy's name is his 1 month showing in New York City. Banksy didnt sell a single piece of art work yet they still got sold for over 214k today. Deep symbolism where used in these art works with towering ronald mcdonalds and dumbo shot down my jihadists in a youtube video. 

The first piece of art on his 30 days adventure in New York. "Graffiti is a crime" is almost mocking the opinions of how his art work is illegal. Something banksy tackles many times. 

Things I've learned about text and image is it is and easy but broad way to express a statement. Artists especially bansky use it to show their views of recent events and political views. 
I could use text and image to broaden something from being just a piece of art work but something that can attract better or get you thinking. 
The thing that inspired me is the freedom of speech expressed through banksy artwork and how he can just put up texts to show how hes feeling. Even if the image is unrelated. 

Hybridity - Ross Ashton

Ross Ashton

Ross was born in sheffield in 1961. Started out as a photographer and moved to London to do projection art. Which he started doing in 1992. 

"His years of experience have produced an instinctive understanding of the relationship between artwork and structure, light and surface, object and subject."

Ross targets emotions with structure . Showing symbolism between a concrete device and fluid expression. His piece named Palimpsest contributes to this motive as he stated. "theme of man's need and desire to understand the universe around him, and to pass on knowledge through the generations."  

Ross drives with his work mostly making it interactive. He creates artwork where the public has plenty of opportunities to be apart of the show. Also Ross interchanges his art works through the showings. In Palimpsest he shows off a bee trying to symbolize human drive and it switches to a different part .. that in its self is suppose to mean theme of man's need and desire to understand the universe around him, and to pass on knowledge through the generations. Then it goes to a piece of art he says traces the start of communications . 

His objective is to create symbolism through projections so a variety of people can see it from so many angels. His art work is always in public display and has even been in films and tv. 

I learned a great deal about Hybridity as it can be the way you present your art and not what is just in it. The form of media you advertise your work can have its own simple meaning in its own. Even watching that banksy documentary you could tell it was more intriguing to find his art instead of him just posting it on Instagram. I also found immersion with the simple concepts can be taken away more after someone sees your art even if everyone does feel the same way about your piece. The way i can add to my artwork is with subtle differences with how it is presented maybe through the idea of generalists or with color scenes to set an emotion to an otherwise emotionless image.
