I’ve been working on finishing up this piece for the last couple of days. A previous phase of this mixed media creation is actually a part of Future Bell-Tops, a digital media piece that’s in the Traditional and Electronic Hybrid album.
I didn’t know what the heck to do with this recently unfinished piece. It had just been hanging around collecting dust for like almost a year now. I was undecided as to what category of creation I’ve already standardized for some of my creative outlets, i.e., the Micro-Chimerisms, the Paranormal Portrait Project, or the Wrecked Tangles project.
It was much closer to the Wrecked Tangles ideas, so I decided to make it the next series for the After the Crash continuation of the Wrecked Tangles project.
I realize all this weaving through the paths of my imagination and creativity can be confusing, but I actually find it fascinating and fun to explore. I hope you can share my excitement.
This piece has nails, a mesh of poultry wire, auto mechanic rags, wood, a small computer card, pastel, acrylic paint, oil paint, and cut-outs of print outs and pictures from old books incorporated into it. It truly is a work of mixed media. And on top of that, this piece has now been hybridized since it’s now scanned for usage in digital manipulations.
I don’t have any specific meanings, or ideas tied to this image. It’s more of just an expression to everyone of how different, and seemingly unrelated materials can be combined into works of art, allowing all the atomic particles and molecules composing it to express themselves through an unexpected artistic venture.
