米国ロサンゼルスを拠点に活動している女性アーティスト・Katy Ann Gilmoreさんが、インスタグラムで公開している作品が面白い。

 

大学で数学を専攻したというKatyさんは、空間の歪みとでもいうような、極めて抽象的な概念を作品のモチーフにしているユニークなアーティストだ。

 

2次元と3次元の狭間

 

2014年に大学を卒業して以来、Katyさんは米国各地のアートギャラリーで作品を発表している。

 

彼女の作品は、一見すると立体のインスタレーションやオブジェに見えるが、実際には平面に描かれている。

A year ago I was in the homestretch of this project through @fbairprogram at Facebook LA (thanks @kristinfarr @dinapugh!) It was my favorite project of the past year, and the most challenging…which is always a good combo! 💪 I learned a lot of techniques that have helped me be more strategic about these types of murals with receding lines / portals (which allowed me to complete them on an even larger scale). Here’s to learning more from each mural in the future 😊

Thinking back a few months to this mural at @vans HQ, and looking forward to more murals in the future…where should I paint next?! 😁 I did a quick interview with Vans to talk about my process, work, and what music I listen to in the studio. Heres the link: http://houseofvans.tumblr.com/post/172660090581/sketchy-behaviors-katy-ann-gilmore-inspired-by…or just google “Vans Katy Ann Gilmore”, that’ll get you there as well!

A view of the mural at @vans before I added in the checkerboard…from the end of day 2. I'm on the beginning of day 5, and I just finished (!!)…and am enjoying a latte from the vans barista as I wait for the floor of the mural to dry! Super excited with how it came out, and can't wait to share final photos! 🤗Thanks people of @vans for being so awesome! 😊

By far my favorite project of 2017, and one of my favorite photos 😂😂😂 Thanks to @fbairprogram for giving me the opportunity to create a detailed 100 ft mural at their Playa Vista offices! Along with being the most fun, this was also the most challenging project. Thanks to @kristinfarr for all of your organizational magic to make this thing happen! 👯 This photo shows just how beautifully photogenic I am. 😆If you scroll back to July/August, you'll see a photo where I'm kind of jumping "into" this portal space…and that one was a success. This was one of the many failed attempts to try to time it right. 😂 I was using a remote timer on my phone, communicating with my camera on a tripod, clicking the shutter as I was jumping. 🤦🏼‍♀️ Enjoy this photo and a little laugh to end 2017. It was a fun, but hard year, and weird little moments like this helped me not to take everything too seriously 😉

地形図から影響を受ける

 

地形図や地形学から大きな影響を受け、平面を歪めて立体に見せることに興味があると彼女は言っている。確かに作品は、等高線で描かれた地形図にどこか似ている。

Woke up early (4:55 am 😳) to hike with the rising sun. Knocked out 8 miles to check out this view. I love how “wrinkly” this landscape is! (Met up with a couple strangers, now friends, from @girlswhohikela. Such a great way to find and explore new trails ☺️)

Sooo bright ✨ from yesterday’s hike on Earth Day (definitely feeling some @matthewshlian in this one’s structure)

This time last year was my first trip to Joshua Tree. I made it into a super fun solo trip and brought some of my work with me. I carried this painting around to find surroundings for it, and had some fun turning it on its corner. Aching for another little solo trip soon! 😊

*actual graph of my energy over time on this hike* 😂 Caught the sunset while on the trail yesterday, and drew this shortly before. I didn't have a white pen, only this pink color, but it seems appropriate for sunset. ☺️

綿密に計算されたアート

 

線描で立体を生み出すために、彼女はあらかじめ透視図法による設計図を作ってから制作に取りかかる。

 

作品の素材は直線と曲線だけ。人の目を惑わすためには、その2つを正確な配置で手描きしなければならない。制作作業中はアーティストというよりエンジニアになった気持ちだ、と彼女自身が言っている。

View this morning. I car camped by Lake Quinalt last night and woke up to this hazy view. I think of ideas while driving and at one point yesterday had to pull over and sketch out these shapes. I'm solo making my way around Olympic National Park without a particular agenda, and it's been quiet and calm. Later in the morning I went on some trails around the Quinalt Rain Forest. Check out my story as I'm currently wi-fi access major uploading!

What I’ve been working on since last Wednesday! This fun project is an exterior and interior mural at the soon to open @sweetgreen in DTLA near Hill and 8th (across the street from the Golden Gopher). I finished the exterior tonight, and will have a final photo soon (it’s about 95% finished here)! For now I’m taking a rest 😴 and then starting the interior mural later in the week 😊 Thanks for the opportunity @artshare_la x @streetarthouse ! (📷 by @justinterests)

I’m constantly playing musical chairs with my plants, especially as the weather changes. Places that weren’t formerly hotspots now are, and I have to move them around. Thankfully almost all of my loft gets bright, indirect light – perfect for plants ❤️🌿 I’ve been spending the past few days spring cleaning for an upcoming studio visit – hence more moving of the plants 🙃

I’ve been slowwwwly working on building a fence for my outdoor area, trying to spruce up the space and make it a better outdoor studio. The weather’s getting warmer, which means I’ll be working outside as much as possible! 😁☀️

自分の車も凸凹に

 

彼女は自分の車も作品にしてしまっている。それは免許を取って最初に買った車、2002年型の日産マキシマ。古くなってベージュ色の塗装がはげて来たので、自分で黒く塗り直し、白い線を手描きしたそうだ。見る角度によってボンネットの中央が出っ張って見える。

Finally finishing up my 2002 @nissanusa Maxima (I started it earlier this year but had to take a break as other projects took precedence over the spring/summer). This was my first car, and I purchased it 6 years ago shortly after moving to LA. I bought it on a trip back to Illinois, and then drove it out here with a couple of friends. I loveeeee this car! It's such a big sedan that allowed me to cart around materials with ease…easily fitting 8' 2x4s and 10' pvc pipes. When I bought my new, bigger car, a 2014 @honda CR-V, I decided to keep this car as a project…and paint it, just to see what would happen! It's been such a fun, challenging project! I don't quite have a plan for the finished product (as one car is MORE than enough to keep track of in LA) but will be sorting that out soon as I'm moving home/studio in a couple of weeks. Can't wait to share the final product! (Scroll through to see other views and an image of the car before)
