I have now returned from Turkey, with a slight suntan and enough photos to start a Kusadasi photo page.
But back in Nottingham, this Frankenstein like figure is the work of artist called Simon Mitchell, who graduated from Nottingham Trent University last year.
His aim is to produce works of art for people on ordinary incomes, and he has an exhibition running at the moment at the Friar Lane art gallery.
He certainly has a style of his own, but I'm not too sure that I'd like to see this particular canvas on my living room wall.
That must have some meaning for the artist( something we may fail to understand) but I'd never put that on my wall.
ReplyDeleteNice photo.
Welcome back, I am sure I don't looks like this in the morning
ReplyDeleteHmm, if Jim Carrey decided to join Gorillaz...
ReplyDeleteWelcome back, so glad you had a great holiday !
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't want this guy in my living room either; even for the sake of modern art !
