Hello there my peeps.. How awesome you guys are today as
usual.
Today’s is more of an artist rather than a piece simply because
of how awesome he is. But I will throw in what I think about the piece, so don’t
worry.
Today’s is by Peter Callesen who is a Danish artist who is
excellent at minimalism and folding paper. I’ve noticed that he seems to be
using the positive and negative space to tell the story which is sometimes a
dark one. This use of both the positive and negative areas helps portray both
the past and the future of his subject with only the use of the clean crisp
white paper.
This particular piece is called “Transparent God.” If you go
to his website (http://www.petercallesen.com/paper/large-scale-papercuts/) you can see more details of this large scale piece.
The figure seen is made up of cutouts from the paper in the shape of people. And this is only one single piece of paper.
There are no extra pieces used or added.
The message I am receiving from this is that “God” is does
not simply exist but is made up and built by people; that without people he/she
would not exist.
What do you guys think he is trying to say here?
Peace out my peeps!- DG
