Painting that’s painting but also something else, part 3 of 3: the process behind these works by Pieter Schoolwerth is incredible. He starts by gathering a group of people together, and photographs their shadows. He takes a photo of the shadow, and then builds a multi-dimensional foamcore model. He photographs the model, and then overlays digital imagery onto the photo. Finally, he paints thick brushstrokes in parts of the digital printout. I’d seen a couple at art fairs here and there before, but there’s a nice group of them on view at Miguel Abreu Gallery’s group show “Bubble Revision” that’s up for a few more days! #pieterschoolwerth #contemporarypainting #contemporaryart #miguelabreugallery https://www.instagram.com/p/Brnout2l0hK/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=11tvahs7al42v
