THEME

• The presence of line, shape and form are involved in the

following art pieces.

• Artists can connect with content and form, even though their

painting techniques and subject matter are unique.

• All the pieces I am about to present have the the same visual

experience. They are abstract or cubist and all have implied

lines that keep eyes moving around the canvas. Also linear

lines make up the edges of forms that are expressed boldly

throughout all the pieces.

• The geometric shapes and colors repeated through out these

pieces of art is what ties all they different artists together,

they all have unity yet variety.

• Each artist has their own perspective on art, something that

is unique, yet in the end their vision can end up looking like

another art piece. This happens through inspiration or by

complete chance. A work of art can look similar to other

pieces but can still be completely different.

INSTALLATION • I would like have these paintings

hanging in a one large room.

• The room will have random white

geometric shaped walls coming

out in which the painting will be

hang on.

• There will be spot lights pointed

directly on the paintings .

• They rest of the room will have

dimmed overhead lighting.

• This will make the paintings

seem like they are popping off

the walls, and be the main focus

in the room.

• The walls without paints will

have matte gray scale tones.
