Own personal reflections
Through this field trip I learnt a lot about the artist’s thinking process and also the history of the museum.
Artist who are invited to exhibit at STPI are brought out of their comfort zone, they are not invited because they’re expert in print but because they’ve never done print before, what is important is the concept behind the art.
Aaron Curry
Aaron was influenced by the bmx culture when he was young, and he was not cultured in a rich art family. He loves music, and many different genre. One of his favorite band is the Kinks. He made use of a lot of Neon colours and non natural colour in his artwork. With motif based around bones, body parts (biomorphic shapes) and music shape. He was inspired to do things that exist in both 2D and 3D.
The material used in this exhibition is a material call Dibond- alumimuim sheet sandwiched between plastic.
His art creation process
- Inspiration, sketches
- Digitised and create stencil
- Laser cutting the plastic
- Coating the plastic with paper
- Screen printing
- Assembled the pieces.
For every piece of work he done, he have thrown away a hundred other pieces. It takes a lot of effort to come up with the best work.
