Continuing with using the idea of "covering" the eyes of the models with blocks of colour, I was reminded of the fantastic work by Kerry Roper who oftens leaves the models in his work unidentified by blocking out their eyes. The eyes are actually an important part of a persons identity and there is also the known quote- "The eyes are the window to the soul".
The examples shown of Kerry Ropers work show body parts, pattern and mark making all merged to form incredible compositions-
This style may not be to everyones taste, but in my opinion I find them so so beautiful.- Infact I now want to try incorporating more subtle pattern and mark-making ideas together to form a background which i could then display body parts onto?....
Love them, a persons identity is all in the eyes, so what's left when the eyes are taken away? There's a nice chaotic-ness with the mark making on them too, like each piece is fighting to be heard (or seen)
