Featuring

This painting depicts a confidence presented by those who bask under attention, proving themselves separate from the meek. Rise from the limelight and stand above the crowd as an icon is meant to be. The glow that surrounds you is but the attention of all who cast their light your way. In all such splendor, they gleam only the surface brilliance of your reflection, for what talent lies further within is what has raised you into your very peak.

Design

Milan Sipek

Milan sculpts the figure as a 3D model in virtual reality, decides the composition, perspective and density of the lines on the computer, and turns the lines into G-code, the path for a CNC machine. Fitted with 3D-printed nozzles, the machine lays the lines on stretched canvas in ribbons of acrylic paint, which then dry for one to three weeks so that the relief stays intact.
