Tools



These are the tools I have used so far in my practical aesthetic project.
Trying my way out. 

Norbert Roos



The antilope is not a DikDik, it is a Cape Grysbok. I got it from Norbert Roos. He hunted it three years ago in South Africa (not far from the city George in a province called Cape). The antilope is active by night. the area is a typical South African bush, not so many large trees, but many small bushes. This link shows you the Antilopen Cape Grysbok where he got shot.


THANK YOU NORBERT ROOS!

Damien Hirst

Mother and Child Divided is a floor-based sculpture comprising four glass-walled tanks, containing the two halves of a cow and calf, each bisected and preserved in formaldehyde solution. The tanks are installed in pairs, the two halves of the calf in front of the two halves of the mother, with sufficient space between each pair that a visitor may walk between them and view the animals’ insides. Thick white frames surround and support the tanks, setting in brilliant relief the transparent turquoise of the formaldehyde solution in which the carcasses are immersed. The sculpture was created for exhibition at the 1993 Venice Biennale and was subsequently the focal point of the 1995 Turner Prize at Tate Britain (then The Tate Gallery), the year that Hirst won the prize. It is now in the collection of the Astrup Fernley Museum of Modern Art, Oslo. Hirst created Tate’s copy for exhibition in the Turner Prize Restrospective at Tate Britain in 2007.

Glass, painted steel, silicone, acrylic, monofilament, stainless steel, cow, calf and formaldehyde solution.

Zahir Batin

Zahir Batin
The epic and unforgettable cultural phenomenon that is Star Wars left countless fans in its wake who were inspired to interpret that universe in their own way. Zahir Batin, a talented Malaysian photographer, combines his talent for photography with paper art and miniature figures to reinterpret the Star Wars universe in his own way.
Zahir arranges various miniature toys and figures into creative scenes and shoots them from close-up to make them seem like actors in his own personal Star Wars-themed adventure. Some of them are humorous (especially the ones with anatomically incorrect figurines), but many do a good job of creating drama, suspense and emotion.
What’s also great is that Zahir shares the behind-the-scenes work that goes into his photos on Facebook. Because he shares his techniques with us, anyone with a bit of photography and Photoshop experience and some time can borrow from his techniques to create their very own dramatic scenes. He uses strings, wires and twigs to position his characters, using Photoshop to remove these aids from his final product.

Harvezt - The Dark Side of the covers


Album artwork has given pop-culture some of it's most iconic imagery that has been appropriated and manipulated by artists again and again. Artist Harvezt has taken a new approach to album art inspired artworks by creating the the opposite perspective. Harvezt's series titled The Dark Side of the Covers reverses the iconic scenes so that they are visualized from behind. Harvezd album artwork

Nastya Ptichek


Based in Kiev, Ukraine, Nastya Ptichek home page has inserted pop-up windows and social media icons into classical paintings. Cheeky and humorous, this series imagines the thoughts of the figures in each painting—that is, if they used social media to express themselves. One funny example shows that “God” has had too many Facebook friend requests, and another “denies” souls accessing heaven after they have died. 

Titled ‘Emoji Nation’, these artworks have been altered to reflect how people behave in today’s digital age.

Miss Pokeno




Alannah Currie is a London based artist who builds deliberately luxurious chairs around uncomfortable and often provocative narratives. She works under the name Miss Pokeno.
Born 1957 in New Zealand Currie trained as a radio journalist and came to London in 1977 attracted by the idea of a punk revolution. The same South London squats which incubated the Slits and the KLF hatched Alannah’s first political actions – she formed an anarchic girl band called the Unfuckables.
