The fruity work so far from my artist residency @ccandratx ❤️ on the island of Mallorca 🏝 • Notes from an island (which may or may not reach you depending on your algorithm) 🌜🏝✨ • In my experience, artist residencies represent the opportunity to play Frankenstein - turn my practice inside out, chip-chop influences and re-visit my past, wrestle with my present and reinvent a new future. • This time round the main objective is to take a look at the materials from which I make my work; using natural plant dyes, sourcing pigments from the island - as well as the more plastic/artificial materials. I've been crushing and grinding, foraging and finding; as well as maintaining some relative sanity through collaging, drawing and painting. • Here’s my PALME MORTRE NEGRE pigment made from the charcoal of a burned 🌴🔥 mixed with linseed oil 💘 • #frankenstein #experimentarium #pigmentmaking #plantdye #naturalcolours #plastic #🌎 #process #progresso #alchemy #chemistry #develop #winover #palmemorte #worksonpaper #naturaloils #mallorca #andratx #reducing #materiality #jameselkins #hipermarket #shinypokemon (at CCA Andratx) https://www.instagram.com/danielvandernoon/p/CXjKcAUs-W8/?utm_medium=tumblr
