Artist Talk pt.1 & pt.2

Art, August Peters, Beeldende Kunst, Contemporary Art, Mixed media, Painting, Paper Art

Both collages works are made of left over cardboard. Pieces of cardboard lying around on the atelier floor when I’m working, I use these to stroke away paint with my brush to clean them. So most of the stains are coincidence, and some are not. Making a composition with these elements makes me take some control of the image. In these two works I combined them with not so coincidental stains and even copied pieces of dessins from fabrics and added them in the image, which give them the needed contrast and depth.

I called them ‘Artist Talk’ because of the different parts that make one image; different points of view but in dialogue with each other.
