It’s so fun to make art in a totally different style than you’re used to!

in #artzone6 years ago

I’ve been wanting to make a new sculpture for a while and this finally happened thanks to some magical visits from my good friend @molassess_ . On the first weekend she came over from Florida we went to a Picasso exhibit that showed how he was inspired by African art. Though I appreciate what he did for the world of art, breaking from the norm n boring expectations, what really inspired me from that museum show where all the trippy African masks.

So by Tiffany’s next visit (last weekend) I was prepared with some “super sculpy” (a kind of slow drying clay) and a box of old toys and little funky objects I gathered on the road. I had a blast making this futuristic ancient tribal mask, I think he’s very unique! Still gotta give him a name, any suggestions? #artisfun #art #sculpture #futureprimitive #foundibjects #africaninspired #mask #africanmask

My name suggestion is "Clamantorque" lol!
A combination of clay, man, toy and torque. I guess not an awesome name. But its all I can think of Chris!
What would you name it?

By the way, its one of a kind art indeed!
Fantastic work of art!

Hey Chris , what the heck did you smoked, when you building this? 😀 ;-)

That’s a really crazy piece of art what you had build here. Remindes me a little bit on a series that is saw last days. „Toys that made us“ ...

But let’s get serious. I really can imagine how much effort you spend in this piece to build it up 👌and it looks very unique! So that’s a good job 👍

Engulfer of Toys ✌️😀

It is so very unique and creative of you. Its always is fun to try something different from what we are used to.

I love the sculpture, alot of funky stuff going on there! It truly is futuristic...

Hello this is very creative, i like the mix between the futurist figurines and the ancients tribal style mask:) The result looks really cool

Really neat, @chrisdyer !!! This is simultaneously very YOU and also very ... new from you hahaha :D Amazing !!!

@chrisdyer Excellent art style you chose for this piece. It is marine and unique. I like it. I love African art. I really like African women's pieces. They are super adorable. Your piece is varied. You achieved a great result by including several objects. I congratulate you for your great impiracion thanks to the great help of your friend and the visit to the Picasso exhibition. A big greeting.

Stunning one! If the watch still work it will be a cool clock too x)

Looking at this unusual and unique art piece made me remember someone I knew once. He's been making raptors and all kind of science fiction vehicles from everything he can put his hands on, like broken toys, beer bottle caps and so on.
I admire you for your imagination and patience! This is not easy to do but it's rewarding :) Well done, I love what I see and call it recycling art!

Hey @chrisdyer, it is nice to see this modern style art but still reminding the old traditional african face mask. I agree, it is not the type of sculpture but the idea of creating by using daily stuff that probably everyone has somewhere at home. Like I recognise hte "Mickey mouse" watch, I have the same and it is on my shelf already for many years, not really working but it is just a sweet memory of childhood so I keep it. Obviously you have two of them and that fits simmetrically into your sculpture. Great imagination and creativity,

Cheers, from Art-supporting blog @art-venture
