SATART-Satellite Art of the 21st century
Earths Graffiti- when God decided to tag the planet...
Looking though the eyes of a satellite is not much different than peering though the eye of a camera lens.
It gives us a different perspective of seeing things which we normally take for granted.
The art is where you find it.
It is my challange to capture the moment, to frame it to my own aesthetic,to colour,to add, to adjust, to feel part of the original creation.
The earth provides Imagery so beautiful that artists can only capture a snippet of the existing masterful creation and replicate it onto canvas, or paper, manipulating, distorting, in an attempt to make it their own.
The evocable power of the human spirit.
We see we feel we want we conquer.
This art is a new art.
It was not available to da Vinci and Picasso.
Technology, and art has fused together, in a 2 dimensional plane depicitng 3 dimensional grandeur.
It is the art of our era................
PHILISOPHICAL MUSINGS
Anything can be created, only if some form of it already exists.
If it doesnt exist, it cannot be.
We humans are merely machines capable of recreating what has already been preprogrammed into our existance.
Our world provides jawdropping, inspiring beauty that doesn't clash in colour or form. ..created by the greatest artist whom the world population is on an endless quest to identify.
(like Banksy, but on a slightly bigger scale...chuckle)
A painter applys paint to his chosen material.
He transforms his idea form the brain to the canvas with his brush.
Ultimately regardless of the time or the cost or the artists own perception of his works, the art gains credibility through opinion.
There is no good or bad. There is only opinion . And opinion rules the market.
A photographer attempts to either capture a moment or replicate an idea. It is already there in form.
Ultimately, regardless of his time or the cost of his equipment, or his artistic technique,and compositional ability, the photographs gain credibility by opinion. And opinion makes a market.
A digital artist mimics both the painter and the photographer.
Only the equipment and method of application is changed.
