New Replete pieces in Croatia/Sweden, by Replete on Sept 18, 2011 18:20:56 GMT 1, Croatia sculpture
Did this series of a figure backflipping down the stairs the other week at Fort Punto Christa in an abandonded fortress in Croatia as part of the Outlook Festival.
This was a last minute idea as the original illusions on perspex I planned couldn't be done in for access reasons so I came up quickly with this spraypainted on pool lining plastic and placed on the battlements stairs.
It was lit at night so the shadows of figures were cast onto the wall but I haven't got a photo of it at night.
Painted this as a little bonus on a bit of heavy duty stage floor plastic I found at Outlook Festival:
I didn't intend it to be this dark as the sketch was quite beautiful but I think I was picking up on all the recent turmoil and attrocities comitted in the Serbo-Croatian war.
There's quite often something horrific lurking just below the thin veneer of beauty.
slackthuset door:
Painted this last week at Slakthuset club an ex slaughterhouse in Stockholm Sweden.
It's painted on the original perspex slaughterhouse doors.
This is half of a slaughter house door I painted live in Slakhthuset.
It's quickly painted in aubergine spraypaint and white marker and then scratched with my knife.
This is one of my favourite pieces of recent times as it looked so different when seen from outside with the light behind that made her look sultry and then seen from the other side she looked angry and then looked completely different again seen like this when the doors were opened into the toilets.

New Replete pieces in Croatia/Sweden, by Replete on Sept 19, 2011 18:41:07 GMT 1, Thanks fellas and those door portraits were a last minute decision as I was meant to do a clingfilm sculpture illusions of one of my origami figures riding an origami bull but that was cancelled on the day I was supposed to paint it as it was deemed a fire hazard so I had to come up with some quick ideas so i did the portraits one with red/white/blue as it was a Brittannia themed night. I did the other one live on the opposite doors to balance it out.

The backlit painting on the door is unreal. ;D (Also like the way you describe the painting at Outlook as a "little bonus", i'd be more than happy if someone left me something like that as a "little bonus".) ;D ;D

New Replete pieces in Croatia/Sweden, by Replete on Sept 21, 2011 19:14:56 GMT 1, cheers guys. I do like the challenge of having to adapt quickly to changes of situations and quite have a few backup options in place for these situations.
I'll dig out the concept sketches and designs for the illusions I was supposed to paint in Croatia as they would have been quite grand if they'd got the final go ahead.
