I am too excited about these to not show you some things are in the works!
Ballerinas and Rocket Ships?
What do Ballerinas and Rocket Ships have in common?
Well at least three things:
Both are things everybody loves.
Both are things I’m working on right now
Both are examples of Futurism
Futurism is about capturing motion
Ballet is such a beautiful art form. To capture a sense of the motion of the dance in a piece of metal art is my intention. I've always been obsessed with Futurism, a movement in art that was literally all about, well, movement in art.
Futurism is about the Excitement of Technology
Classic Futurism
Futurism is an antique as it fell on the heels of cubism about a hundred years ago. Besides motion in art the term also expressed enthusiasm for the technology of the time. So I find it doubly fitting since the other leg of my journey is to explore in art the quirky relationship between humans and technology. Three decades in UX has stirred so many ideas and outstanding questions yet to be explored. And what better way to explore digital culture and the virtual universe than with UX themes rendered in industrial steel and concrete? Right?
