Wassily Kandinsky was born on December the 16th, 1866 and died on December the 13th, 1944. He was raised up in Moscow, Russia. As a child he loved to play music and learned.
He applied streaks and blobs of colors onto the canvas with
a palette knife and made them sing with all the intensity he could.
From what he said earlier in his career: “To this Color is
the keyboard, the eyes are the harmonies, the soul is the piano with many
strings. The artist is the hand that plays, touching one key or another, to
cause vibrations in the soul.”
Was a lecturer in Law at University at 1895 in Russia, but
gave up his job to study painting in Munich.
He was a member of the avante-garde painting group called
the Blue Rider. Show his abstract style of paintings with the group.
The first I thought about Kandinsky and his was very spiritual about his art making.
He was commented as saying, that his belief in art is based
on the harmony of color and form.
He believed that every color had an inner voice and a
meaning.
He carefully plans each painting to express, through the colors and abstract forms, exactly the feelings and spiritual ideas he wishes
to communicate.
In my work, in my opinion I have created a final piece inspired by Wassily Kandinsky.
As his work related to music i thought that i could create artwork based on Afrobeats.
Afrobeats music is quite loud and uses a lot of base therefore I decided to use strong colors to represent this feeling and experience. I also used a series of musical objects such as speakers as these relate to the circles and squares that feature in Kandinsky's work.
I think the strengths of my work are the composition and the way I have refined the overall finish. I think that I have represented the music accurately i particularly like the speakers perspective. I spent a lot of time mixing my own colors, especially with the grey, I found this to be a time consuming exercise that I didn't particularly enjoy however the final outcome was great. from the experience of making this piece of work I have learnt that perseverance
is really important to ensure a high quality outcome.
