Aaron Kuiper - Terra Flora (Oil Paint in Hydrogel) |
You only have till 11 November to catch this exhibition at Chapel Gallery in Ormskirk so you'd better get your skates on! It's an exhibition by 10 artists, fascinated by the natural environment.
I was fascinated by Aaron Kuiper's 3D sculptural oil paintings in hydrogel. Like mini ecosystems with lots of trees, water and rocks, they are quite amazing. Kuiper uses syringes instead of brushes to leave the pigment in the gel.
Julie James-Turner uses Victorian style nightwear to evoke fairy tale forests and gothic notions of death and dreaming...
