2024 Author: Richard Flannagan | [email protected]. Last modified: 2023-12-15 23:55
At first glance, paintings by artist Robin Eley seem to be unusual photographs. Unusual because almost all models are wrapped in cellophane. As it turned out, this is how the artist expresses his attitude to the modern world. The collection of realistic paintings is called "Idolatry" and shows how funny people look when they worship inanimate objects: mobile phones, luxury cars, new things.
In his works, Robin Eley tries to draw public attention to spirituality, which is almost forgotten in the largest cities of the world. The artist, who lives in America, complains that passers-by run headlong on business, not even noticing the weather around, not to mention the beauty of the sunset (which is hidden by high-rise buildings) and the murmur of the river (chained in concrete).
Most of all, Robin Eley misses the Australia where he grew up. The artist admits that it was there that he became who he is - a harmoniously developed personality, able to notice the beauty around him. The same positive qualities can be attributed to Mandy Tsung, whose sensual portraits have won over more than one art lover.
