Christian Marclay
1955-
artist based in London and New York
Marclay has interest in the relationship between sound and image. The following image was taken from a video he made, which is consist of numerous onomatopoeia taken from comic books. It is interesting. However, it was a lot of information for me to take in, that I could not bear to stay in that space.
In comparison, I am more fond of his works on canvas and paper. He spilled paints on the canvas or paper first, then printed onomatopoeia.
I like the colour he used, as well as the lavish layers in the paintings.
The other series of work really interests me. There is a bullseye glass on each of them, above a found sheet music. When you look through the bullseye glass, the sheet blow looks has been twisted into a fantastical shape, which gives a miraculous feeling. I wonder if I can combing something like this with my design to give more fantastical feeling to it.
