Collaboration with The Munch Museum
For the past few weeks I have been working on a painting for an exhibition at the Munch Museum.The idea of the painting was to show how an artist can use copying as a form of learning by doing. My aim was to focus on the artistsĀ“ techniques and materials rather than likeliness. The original painting on the right shows clear signs of age such as change in colours and darkening of the white unpainted canvas due to dust and other things. My take on the original also contains some effects such as dripping or runny paint that is something Munch have done on other paintings but not on this original. The whole exhibition which can be seen from 14.01 - 4.02.2019 is showcasing a few highlights from their collection in a theme of exploring originality, duplicates, variations, copies, reproductions and fakes.
