Forming and Fragmenting

originally found at CargoCollective.com

Forming and Fragmenting is a series of imagery by Andre Wee that depict portraits that exist in an eternal state of transition. It is however, uncertain as to whether these figures are in the process of “forming” or “fragmenting” due to it existing in such an undefined state. This inability to define, ironically labels these entities as beings that embody the idea of a limbo. An experience of being of two different states at the same time and yet, not belonging to either.

A word from the artist:

THIS IS WHAT I’VE BEEN WORKING ON FOR THE LAST THREE WEEKS. IT’S THE RESULT OF A WORKSHOP IN FINE ARTS WITH THE THEME “ICONS” (COMPUTER ICONS/CELEBRITIES/FASHION ICONS/RELIGIOUS ICONS, ETC). 

I CHOSE TO WORK WITH MOVIE ICONS FROM TWO DIFFERENT ERAS. THIS PROJECT HAS BEEN A LOT ABOUT IDEALS, PATTERNS AND ANATOMY. I NAMED THE PROJECT ICONATOMY FROM THE WORDS “ICON” AND “ANATOMY.” 

I HAVE WORKED WITH A COLLAGE TECHNIQUE, BUT IN A COMPUTER, WHICH FOR ME IS A FIRST. I AM REALLY PLEASED WITH THE END PRODUCT AND I WANT TO DEVELOP THIS CONCEPT FURTHER.
