Exclusive Interview with German Sculptor & Videographer freaky-Deek | Part 1

“After finishing a project, I feel the urge to create something completely new, but social norms, and social media dictate a sense of regularly pushing out similar content, using similar hashtags, maintaining a schedule โ€“ which are, in my opinion, literally poison to creativity.”

Having grown tired of just typing on a keyboard, freaky-Deek decided to dive into his creative passion and start his own business.

Exclusive Interview with Tom Glynn โ€“ Part 4 | As A Man Thinketh

Tom Glynn is a rare breed: an artist who can move effortlessly between artforms, materials, scales and registers, equally adept at making miniature paintings andย  monumental sculptures. And yet all of his work is unmistakably English in mood.ย  His images are populated by the countryโ€™s Neolithic monuments and pastoral landscapes, and informed by the many artists who inhabited those places before him.ย  Glynn is driven by the same Romantic spirit that motivated Palmer and Turner, Nashย  and Piper, Wallis, Lanyon and Hockney, but his art is never anything but his own. Itย  is, after all, underpinned by an urge that has coursed through his veins since he firstย stepped foot in a sandpit.ย

ANTOINETTE: Altar of Europa 3.0 – Art Museum in the Metaverse | INVITATION

The artist ANTOINETTE, together with her technology partner BizzTech, have created a photorealistic museum space ofย  unprecedented image quality in the Metaverse for the ALTAR of EUROPA. The ALTAR of EUROPA is a real existing, 100m2 drawing consisting of millions of individual pencil strokes created by ANTOINETTE during three years of work . The image density of this monumental work of art is an ideal example to demonstrate the power ofย the browser-based multi-polygon technology used. In the digital world, every detail of the drawing becomes visible and perspectives and sections can be explored that would not beย accessible when visiting the physical exhibition. In this virtual space, museum visitors, regardless of their location, meet with theirย digital twins, their avatars. With their avatars and an integrated translation tool, visitors can communicate about what they see and what moves them, without being restricted by language barriers.ย 

Exclusive Interview with Tom Glynn – Part 2 | Assembling Life

What makes your art unique? “My paintings, sculptures and assemblages are potentially unique as Iย explore the narrative of everyday events and issues, historical journeys,ย the paradox of objects and the abstract qualities of both landscape andย  the built environment. Direct responses to landscape are significantย recurring themes. I work with a multitude of found objects, materials andย  techniques within the scope of painting and sculpture, in order toย harness the mystery and visual excitement created by juxtaposition,ย visual memory and spatial configurations – the surrealist and dadaย  placement of objects and images. Themes and visual ideas oftenย  explore incongruity, archaeological qualities, visual ambiguity, pictorialย and real space, political irony, symbol and humour, resulting in a wideย  range of outcomes made from expressively applied paint, collage,ย  assemblage, wood and objets trouvรฉs that yield a profusion of colour,ย texture, form and spatial complexities.”
