Christopher David White – Tipping Point – Sculpture<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Ses sculptures\u00a0hyper r\u00e9alistes sont faites d’argile.\u00a0A\u00a0partir de\u00a0moulages ou moulage – il reproduit\u00a0la texture du bois\u00a0dans ses moindres d\u00e9tails. Un vrai trompe-l’oeil :
\n\u00abJe cherche \u00e0 exposer la beaut\u00e9 qui r\u00e9sulte souvent de la pourriture tandis que, en m\u00eame temps, je renvoie au\u00a0spectateur leur propre perception du monde.\u00a0\u00bb<\/p>\n

\u00ab\u00a0I seek to expose the beauty that often results from decay while, at the same time, making my viewer question their own perception of the world around them. To accomplish this, I begin by observing instances of decay within my surroundings that I find inspiring due to form, color, or texture. With clay as my medium of choice I then meticulously render by hand those elements, taking advantage of clay\u2019s innate ability to mimic a wide variety of materials. I utilize trompe l\u2019oeil as a stylistic choice to emphasize the concept that our understanding of the world is an illusion. The juxtaposition of natural and man-made features in combination with the skewing of scale, proportion, and material, helps in creating an altered perception \u2013 forcing the viewer to look closer.\u00a0\u00bb<\/em><\/p>\n
