I actually can’t show you my two new ones yet (Corona-Art #9 & #12: They are made as presents. But I thought, I’d post a self-portrait I made in between. I have incorporated the recycling thought here as well. The canvas is made of small wooden plates, which often come with canvases. So therefore it’s …
Corona Art #11: No Piece of Art is like the other
So my beautician who supplies me with quite few masks, asked me if I could do one piece for her like my “Filtering Flower Piece 1”. This is the result. Somehow same but so very different. I’ve taken pictures and a video from both next to each other. What do you think?
Corona-Art #10: Beauty Standards
I‘ve been thinking a lot about Beauty standards latetly. And since I’m running low on masks, I’ve started experimenting with collages and photo transfers. This is my first one. A self portrait. The main theme is diversity in beauty. This is an inkjet print and even though the common opinion is that only laserjet prints …
Corona-Art #8: This must be underwater Love
This new work was “commissioned” as a birthday gift. The objective was turquoise coloring with an aquatic and underwater vibe. It’s acrylic on canvas (30×40) using several methods (spatula & spray painting for example). I’ve used Ffp2 masks and simple medical masks. PS: This piece is gone.
Corona-Art #7: Black & White
This is a 50 x 60 cm piece. I used acryl on canvas and spray-painted the fftp2 masks with different colors and layers as well. I also used a medical mask in the middle and formed it to a flower. I also used an old frame as a base for the filtering flower pieces.
Corona-Art #6: The Butterfly
Another Acrylic on canvas (20 x 50): I have thought about how a butterfly is the ultimate symbol for transformation. The caterpillar has to go through an extreme metamorphosis to become a beautiful butterfly. This is why I have chosen this motive for my next piece. It ended up a bit childlike and sweet. PS: …
Corona-Art #5: Filtering Flower Piece 2 (FFP2)
Acrylic on canvas (20 x 50): This time I’ve used two of my Filtering Flower Pieces. I like the play on words with having used two pieces and the actual term FFP2.
Corona-Art #4: Filtering Flower Piece 1
Another Acrylic on canvas (30 x 40): This is the first time I’ve used FFP2 masks and glued them on the canvas. To me this looks like a flower.
Corona-Art #3: Underwater Roses
Black and blue metalic: The abstract paining is acrylic on canvas (30×40). I felt inspired to form the recycled medical masks into roses. In my opinion the colors give the painting an underwater vibe. The process of making art of medical masks lasts a bit. I constantly have to wait for them to dry before …
Corona-Art #2: Mandatory Black & White
Mandatory Black & White: A new piece of my Pandemic series. It’s acrylic on canvas with used masks (no worries, they come from people I know. They were disinfected and washed beforehand). The intention is to make something beautiful or at least artsy from waste…
