Vispo/Collage: Unrestrained Living x3

collage, digital, vispo, print


Three variations on an original theme/piece first thought of as a comment on the overriding bourgeois mindset/materialist domination of the art world which I then considered insignificant in relation to the art I and others working in the 'invisible' arena make, therefore hesitated to even continue before going ahead since it was virtually complete. It's tempting and easy to complain about what we perceive as The State Of Things (galleries/curators/dealers etc) but it pays to step back and realise that their world is actually another one entirely and not a place we should even concern ourselves with. Which is not to say that small salvos we may fire at Them are a waste of time, even if only to make ourselves feel better. I'm fully aware, however, that like the person who constantly complains about, say the government, without realising the ineffectiveness of their voice only results in bitterness which make them miserable.
