This piece was created after a walk on along Mai Khao beach, Phuket, when I found the cut-up piece of plastic from a fuel container. The 'found' piece is in the top right corner, stuck onto the canvas with super glue.
Size: 60x80cm. for each canvas. Framed separately.
Medium: Acrylic paint, super glue and found beach trash.
I wanted to evoke an 'other-worldly' feel, as I think the ocean is another world. It was the ocean that inspired this piece, starting with the trash I collected.
I also wanted to play with cubism. I hoped the angles would also represent a school of swimming fish. The two colours are a contrast of sand deep sea, light and dark. The shapes are a contrast on organic and man-made objects and their harmonious blend.
