Lost in Art
With the sun still somewhat elusive it was only right to spend a rainy day at Art16. All of my senses went into overdrive as we walked through the aisles showcasing over 1,000 art pieces from around the world! It didn't matter that summer here meant 60 degree Fahrenheit weather interspersed by drizzles; for those 3 hours, it was sunny...in my head!
Here are a few of my favorites from Art16 with my own made up titles. Feel free to comment below with your thoughts on the pieces.
Strength and Cruelty
Match heads
Losing Face
I usually don't like abstract art but this one really appealed to me. I see a woman pulling away quickly and leaving her face behind. What do you see?
The Awakening
I see a woman rising...I might add that the artist didn't intend this. She through paint across the canvas and out came this! I won't even mention how much it was
The library
That's the actual title of this one.
Bookshelf
For a second ai actually thought this was a real bookcase
White Flag
Inventors
Something out of an animated movie
Winter House
The painting reminded me of a 3d architecturla simulation
Shooting Birds
The painting was supposed to be about shooting birds but I couldn't help but notice the guy on the couch looking dead. I think the shooter missed the bronze birds :(
Larva
This was really cool to touch (even though we weren't allowed to touch)
Ducky
So cute!
Zucchini Painting
All I see is Zucchini
Wall Climbing
Notice how the other kids just sit calmly on the floor like someone isn't jumping over their heads
Sand Storm
Waterfall
This painting was commissioned by the US ambassador to Japan. My photo of it doesn't do it justice but it was simply breathtaking and worth half a million dollars
Body Parts
Parking Lot
This was attached to one of the photographs and I found it fascinating that someone thought it could not be displayed without this parking lot complete with little people
Demon child
I thought this was so dark
Beauty
Alone
This little girl right here is so cute
Lotus
This is NOT a photograph. It's a painting. How on earth did he do it? Even the effect of some of the picture being out of focus. I really wanted this one
Shy girl
Kid Comes to Life
They brought out the only bronze statue for display and realised they'd set it up to look like he jumped out and came to life
Boy Warrior
Life size bronze statue
Water Me
What comes to mind when you see this?
The Future
The Genie
So many genies so little eyes
Sightless Mickey
Arcade Games
Mezmerize
Croc tail
I'm just wondering how one get's this close to a croc without getting clobbered
