 @CriticalCupcake Would be nice if you edit your original post with the link because comments are not visible for everyone in the same way. Please never post artists' content without naming the source. @ovb69  @elaterite @CriticalCupcake Banksy tends to have anti-violence as a theme, though. IMO this artist wants violence.  @CriticalCupcake @CriticalCupcake Seeing it done, it's amazing how much the alteration adds to the feel of the picture. But if I were the artist, I'd be really worried where my next, equally great concept was going to come from @Greenseer @CriticalCupcake Imagine if for reasons of a changed culture or economy our art could be restored to an expressive form of play, and we didn't have to always try to rival or top the last thing. The intrinsic drive is just to make for the sake of making. The intrinsic fear is usually that you won't get it all out before something happens to you, age or injury. If that were all artists had to face I think we'd have more art, and more great art. @cwicseolfor @CriticalCupcake Absolutely, if it were left to the muse we'd have much more art, many more artists, but perhaps fewer artists consistent or productive enough to make a living from it, because I suspect that muse tends not to accompany people on a permanent basis  @Greenseer @cwicseolfor @CriticalCupcake All the more reason to dump capitalism as an economic form of government, in favor of a communal based one where money doesn't determine success or survival in our society. Freed from having to chase money, all kinds of artistic (and other) benefits abound. @504DR @cwicseolfor @CriticalCupcake Yep! Capitalism kills art.. but is very good at creating the illusion of great artists, providing they play the game  @CriticalCupcake @CriticalCupcake has a very Banksy-esque feel, where he uses what is around to create modern street art, the artist here is definitely thinking outside the box and includes the frame or glass as an integral part of the piece. It's nice to see a refreshing take on the 'traditional framed picture beneath glass' art that you hang on your wall.  @CriticalCupcake as a blind person a vidio with no description is confusing and off putting. can you please describe? @liseo @CriticalCupcake #Alt4You This video shows the creation of a series of sketches of people, where rather than simply framing the sketch as-is, the frame is modified to accentuate, such as cracking the glass where a boxer is punching, fraying the wood frame where a pickaxe in the sketch comes down, attaching a popped balloon to a string to give a 3D effect to a girl looking sad holding it, cutting the paper and curling the edges up as a boy looks to be cutting the page, and others.   @CriticalCupcake @likelyjanlukas Unfortunately, tech.lgbt defederated from my instance a year ago citing our instance as an ongoing danger for harbouring and/or apologizing for abusers. Sadly, that wasn't true yet we remain defederated. And we're angry about it. TL;DR: I can't see toots from accounts on tech lgbt I'm sorry to hear that. βΉοΈ It was a post showing artworks of things like a child with a baseball bat, staring into the sky. The glass from the frame was deliberately shattered at a point above the figure, making it seem that he'd hit a ball through the 'window' of the frame. @CriticalCupcake They're breaking the fourth wall quite literally. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fourth_wall |
@CriticalCupcake do you know who the artist is?
