Tung Ming-Chin Wooden Sculpture

January 13, 2021 by Arseny Vesnin in 2021, Art, Portfolios, Sculpture, Taiwan

“"Sculptor Tung Ming-Chin carves wood into figurative shapes that seem to press against the surface of the finished work. In “Inner Turmoil” a face and hands are trapped inside a hunk of wood that has the smooth, stretched appearance of fabric, and in “Breath”, the rounded spine and feet of a crouched figure expand outside the confines of a stiff white box. Tung was born in Changhua, Taiwan, and received both his BFA and MFA from Taipei National University of the Arts.”

@azamatakhmadbaev

Digital Decade resident, artist Azamat Akhmadbaev dropped a personal release on Sedition Art Platform, London.

MCR_XPRMNT+SND

This series of video artworks is a metaphysical trip to another reality between our vision and perception. In accordance with the postulates of postmodernism and legacy of Derrida, the artist plays with the language of color, providing the opportunity to rethink our links with the current world through kitsch and low fidelity. Macro video recording and experimental sounds in videos are 'entry points' to the new stage of postmodernism where a viewer can melt a metaphysical body and disappear to leave marks in the internal world.

The collection name is derived from the words "macro", "experiment" and "sound".

WARNING: These videos have been identified to potentially trigger seizures for people with photosensitive epilepsy. Viewer discretion is advised.

Hendrik Kerstens

January 05, 2021 by Arseny Vesnin in Art, Portfolios, Photography, 2021

“Hendrik Kerstens did not train formally as an artist. however, he wished to devote himself to a more creative profession and in 1995, at the age of forty, he left the business world and took up photography. His wife Anna worked full time to support this change of direction. in a reversal of more traditional roles, Kerstens cared for their young daughter Paula, while also studying photography during the day. Having a child left a deep impression on Kerstens. Through photography, he explored the accompanying feelings of responsibility, vulnerability and love he felt towards his daughter, starting with documentary family snapshots.

As Paula physically and psychologically grew, Kerstens searched for an artistic manifestation of these changes, leading to his interpretations of the great dutch master painters of the 17th century with Paula as his muse”

Art of Jung-Yeon Min

January 04, 2021 by Arseny Vesnin in 2021, Art, France, Portfolios

“Paris-based artist Jung-Yeon Min paints fantastic, dreamlike landscapes that are both beautiful and intriguingly grotesque. Playing with form, space, perspective, and scale, the Korean-born artist uses acrylic on canvas to create surreal scenes filled with warped expanses of land, towering organic life, and fleshy appendages that sprawl and twine like vines or tentacles. Min's paintings, which blend Western and Eastern aesthetics, invite the viewer to explore a world as alluring as it is frightening.”

Santi Zoraidez shared a collection of his best 3D work done in 2020

“It has been a difficult year for all of us. A year full of complications, fears, anxiety and frustration. I feel like a landmark year, an opportunity to start over, grow and be better. Personally, I have to say that even with everything that was happening around me I have been able to do great things and I am grateful for that. Things that seemed difficult to achieve at the beginning of the year. That’s why I wanted to make this edit with a selection of the best work I have been doing during the last years. As a full stop and move to the next step from here. I’ve lost 20kg and am running almost every day on the beach in Barcelona, the city I’ve dreamed of living in for a long time. It feels great how ideas come to mind again as I do it. ”

Art of Anders Krisár

December 29, 2020 by Arseny Vesnin in 2020, Art, Portfolios, Sweden, Sculpture

@anderskrisarstudio

The subject of numerous museum shows, Anders Krisár’s work, often focuses on the human body. Krisár’s sculptures often features or makes reference to the human form, exhibiting a preoccupation with formal rigor and abstraction. Using this exacting approach, he employs precision of form to create intensely personal, psychological landscapes. Krisár’s sculptures – immaculately produced, and often bear a deliberate blemish that is itself impeccably rendered – are discomfiting, objects of simultaneous horror and beauty

The sculptures are uncanny because of the meticulousness with which they are executed; according to Krisár, “I’m a perfectionist because I have to be, it’s not really a choice. And it’s not a striving for satisfaction, it’s rather to avoid pain.”
