New Replete urban landscapes on metal panel/canvas, by Replete on Mar 15, 2011 19:19:03 GMT 1, Hiya folks,

Of late in the last week I've been experimenting with a new style based on abstracted urban landscapes.



The latest of which is entitled Ride The Visual Shunt and is painted and scratched in spraypaint on a found electrical metal panel. It's 32"x22" (roughly 90x60cm).

An abstracted interior of a subway train with the colours and texture of graffiti suffusing the structure.

All the highlights in the piece are actually a result of the paintwork being scratched off with my leatherman's knife revealing the metal panel's base coat emulating the sort of graffiti scratched into the paintwork of real subway trains.


The second piece is my first experiment and is entitled Hoarding Entropy In The Worn House and is 36x24" (96x64cm) painted in spraypaint on a gallery stretcher canvas.

It's based on an abandoned paint factory's warehouse I used to paint before it was demolished and is partly inspired by the star gate sequence from the end of 2001 A Space Odyessy.



Both pieces come signed, with COA and an original pencil sketch used to create the piece.

I've added them to my bigcartel site to aid purchase replete.bigcartel.com or you can contact me here or at contact@repletes.net about them.

For shipping outside of the UK, US or Canada please contact me for prices for postage.

All the best,

R
