I originally looked at two artists for this project, Peter Kennard and Friedrich Caspar, I did get slightly inspired but I felt that I had to go in my own way for this one.
Caspar's empty landscapes were probably the most influential to my project, that vast empty space, I wanted to see if I could subtlety insert my idea in there. But after a while I realised that his view was too beautiful, my project wasn't about something pretty but something rather ugly. Although it made me want to take empty landscapes and add my idea to it I knew it wouldn't work.
I liked Kennard's work especially his Santa's Ghetto, but again his view was completely different to mine, it was still a start.
Lucie,
ReplyDeleteVast empty spaces? See this image by Stuart Franklin. I had to post it on my blog because I gave up looking for it in the internet:
