MICA BRYAN: TART of the week

Coco TART

So its my third Tart in a row (well done me), I finally have my flow.

So yes this week i have an artist that i have been looking at, and his name is Zilvinas Kempinas. Originally a painter he makes this beautiful aesthetically but yet delicate sculptures. Made out of VHS tape, using the tape in all different ways to create sculptures, each creating a different form and shape. The structures are so pleasing to the eye that you would not necessarily associate it with the material of VHS. Because its taken so far away from it context, it almost becomes unrecognizable as having a function. As a viewer you are almost drawn into the work to find out what it is made out of, because it is soo aesthetically pleasing, makes you wonder how the material can be manipulated in a way, to create such exquisite but yet structural dominating sculptures in a space.
