Tupac Shakur (2020) 미술작품 Monique De Kruijk 로

ART DESCRIPTION
A strong-looking, exciting painting with contrasting colors that is a true eye-catcher for every room. 

Mixed Media Technique
This mixed media painting is made from cassette tapes, on which multiple layers of acrylic have been applied using spray paint, brush and markers.

Background
Black cassette tapes are used in the background in this artwork. In some places you can see a bit of red, yellow or blue in the labels. The use of color has been deliberately kept to a minimum, so that all attention is focused on the painting. At the bottom right, the white tapes have been sprayed with blue spray paint. It brings the painting into contrast with the background.

Painting
Red and blue colors are leading in the painting. The portrait is made with (mixed) white and black paint. Shadows are used a lot, for example in the bandana, to make it look like fabric. Also in the face there is a clear light, dark contrast. The viewing direction as well as the shadows ensure a penetrating, strong stare.
In the lower right corner, dots are placed in pastel colors. Blue paint has been sprayed over it. This gives a special effect to the blue color and prevents it from becoming monotonous.

Framing
The image area is bordered by a sleek wooden frame, which provides a modern finish.

COLLECTION SOUNDS
This beautiful art collection mainly consists of music related pop art paintings with celebrities/icons. It is decorative art with everyday utensils from the consumer society. The reuse of materials brings the artworks to life. Monique brings her art to life among people. The collection consists of modern paintings with a touch of retro, vintage style. That is what makes these paintings so special. These distinctive contemporary artworks are not only one of a kind, but they also connect the past with the present.

It symbolizes the circle of life:
Discarded objects get their appreciation again. It's modern art, but it takes you back to the past. The artistic imperfections in the painting give the feeling that the artwork has been alive for years.

Every painting in this collection is eccentric. The character of this collection is enhanced by the many uniquely detailed design aspects that differ per painting.

How did these mixed media paintings come about?
Monique started this collection spontaneously. When she found cassette tapes, she thought it would be a shame to throw them away. There was still too much value in and memories of these beautiful, colorful, nostalgic objects. Monique then decided to turn it into wall art. The cassette tapes were mounted on a wooden plate and then she started painting icons of all times on it. Every artwork from this collection is completely handmade, also the wooden, permanently attached frame.
