有花瓣也有凋零,不断敲击观众的灵魂,直到粉碎

Danielle Lawrence的绘画装置

Danielle Lawrence的创作将传统绘画延伸到装置艺术。保持传统并打破传统是我们每一个做创作的人应该去做的。他的作品充满神秘感，不断融合的色彩方佛像一场有斗争的梦境，也像一个赤裸裸的现实，有花瓣也有凋零，不断敲击观众的灵魂，直到粉碎，于是我们流下热的眼泪，为这些好的创作，为在创作力能够找寻到的自己。

他创作的包含性极强，能够给任何领域都能够带来灵感，比如服装的面料、廓形，珠宝设计的材料实验性、插画中的色彩运用、空间设计等。

It is always exciting and refreshing to see traditional art methods used in a whole new way. Artist Danielle Lawrence‘s fresh eye on contemporary art takes the conventional framed painting and transforms it into highly textural and sculptural work, taking it to another level. In her work, the frame is often still present, but the art inside it is spilling out, exploding from the frame that confines it. It is almost as if the paint has a life of its own, trying to escape from the cage and constraint we have given it. Lawrence explains that the frame is a symbol of patriarchal structures and restriction.

Lawrence’s non-representational painting method allows the colors to melt and drip, creating incredible movement in each piece. These colors appear bent, folded, and manipulated, creating organic forms. Each bright, glossy color erupting from each canvas and frame turns the typical two-dimensional painting into a more palpable, three-dimensional piece that reaches out at the viewer. Her artistic journey began while experimenting using trash as subject. Still pulling inspiration from found objects, the artist’s work often includes items from her studio, including plastic bags and bubble wrap. Lawrence’s take on form and material is both chaotic and structured, creating order out of an eclectic range of colors and media. She flawlessly creates a beautifully balanced mixture of classic painting methods with a new, contemporary approach.

She’s an avowed formalist with an eye to the street. Her works are lustrous and abject, smooth and sharp, blunt and sophisticated. While painting is clearly her passion, she makes promiscuous use of other media: sculpture, drawing, photography and video.
