我用生活中的回憶和瞬間來做微型畫
All my pieces are hand-painted in acrylic on miniature 4"x4" (10x10cm) canvas board. I recreate the simple beauty and nostalgia of moments in everyday life, particularly sunsets or sometimes dreamlike night skies, as well as trips across my local moorland, recreated from photos I have taken over the years. I like being able to find, capture, and create beauty in landscapes that wouldn't stereotypically be considered picturesque: driving along a motorway, the outskirts of a city, the street of a quiet neighborhood, the roof of a carpark, the headlights of traffic... we can find the beauty in anything if we choose to see it.
我所有的作品都是用丙烯酸手工繪制在迷你的4x4 (10x10厘米)帆布板上。我重現(xiàn)了日常生活中簡單的美麗和懷舊的時刻,特別是日落或有時夢幻般的夜空,以及通過我多年來拍攝的在我當?shù)氐幕囊奥眯械恼掌N蚁矚g能夠在風景中發(fā)現(xiàn)、捕捉和創(chuàng)造美,而這些風景通常不會被認為是風景如畫的:沿著高速公路行駛,在城市的郊區(qū),在安靜社區(qū)的街道上行駛,在停車場的屋頂上行駛,在車燈前行駛……只要我們愿意去看,我們就能發(fā)現(xiàn)任何事物的美。
I wanted to find a muse that everyone could relate to, as well as a way for me to relive my memories to help with my mental health during lockdown. The pandemic has made many of us realize we took the simplest moments and activities for granted, and those are the exact things I wanted to capture in my paintings.
我想找到一個每個人都能感同身受的繆斯女神,也想找到一種讓我重溫記憶的方式,幫助我在禁閉期間保持心理健康。大流行讓我們很多人意識到,我們把最簡單的時刻和活動視為理所當然,而這些正是我想在我的畫中捕捉的東西。
I have always been fascinated with miniature things, and the concept of capturing large-scale landscapes in a little snapshot, pocket-size memory, like a photo you’d take and have stored away on your phone—on a canvas—gives them a new lease of life.
我一直對微型的東西著迷,用一張小小的快照捕捉大規(guī)模的風景的概念,口袋大小的記憶,就像你拍下來并存儲在手機上的照片——在畫布上——給了它們新的生命。
