THE TREE OF LIFE ON ALUMINIUM – THE CLIP
***
*
Cracks is part of my Lacer/actions Project, about the decomposition of torn publicity posters on outside advertisings (my realistic and not manipulated images are transferred on canvases, lithographic prints or textiles). Since 2009 I’ve been also workin’ on metal, plastic or stony surfaces, or metal and plastic platings. So, I entered the wonderful world of Cracks… We are surrounded by cracks. We live in a planet of cracks. And cracks may be considered “an active aesthetical appreciation” of what we call the disturbing elements of imperfection. My eyes and cameras discovered, in cracks magnifications, another astonishing textures in what we usually consider waste materials. Also my Cracks are realistic, natural, random and not enhanced images, as you see in this picture. More Cracks in this special gallery…
I know EXACTLY where your Tree of Life “Cracks” on aluminium should be exhibited or displayed!!! I wonder if you know?! A clue – it’s an industrial garage building…. I love the cracking bark effect like Silver Birch trees…..Magnifico Roberto!
Thank you Marysia!
