artistic views

Oliver Herring is a very unique artist. There are many ways to create an idea and create it to a visual art piece. Oliver Herring creates his in a way that makes people want to know more are be apart of his creation, He express it through video, styrofoam photo sculptures.

In Oliver's biography he talks about how he uses videos to recreate dreams that he had and the type of colors an the movement of people in the dreams that he had. Also he doesn't really care about the medium that he uses as longs as it express the feeling he is join for. 

My all time favorite piece of his work is the spitting of the food dye and the effect it creates at the end an the colours and the sculptures out of styrofoam. The most famous one is ''Gloria''  (which is the one with the woman leaning on the wall) but he also has some other ones that interest me. Usually these things don't capture my eye but is because of the technique and the outcome of it.
