Filthy Fluno’s exhibit at the Artis Gallery
Event date: Sunday July 12th at 12 pm SLThttp://slurl.com/secondlife/
Patrick Cournoyer’s Artis group and gallery
are dedicated to discovering and promoting talented SL artists. After a few months’ interruption, they are back, with an impressive new gallery built by Oldoak Merlin and Elko Schufang, to continue this tradition. We are honoured to have SL art personality Filthy Fluno as one of our first exhibits.
Filthy Fluno (Jeffrey Lipsky, by his real name) is a prominent artist on the SL art scene and has been featured in the NY Times and the Boston Globe newspapers as well as in many online publications.
He uses pastels and charcoals drawings, oil or acrylic paintings, using a spontaneous approach to make abstract narrative artworks. “I create symbols, textures, imagery, text and composition that merge into something cohesive enough to tell a story”, he says. Most of his recent work expresses how we live in troubled and fragmented times, but this is only to put the accent on the good times, which he believes, we must forever cling to. That is why, even in his more colourful pieces, there will always be some elements that promote a darker interpretation.
Fluno finds inspiration in the people, places and cultures he discovers through Second Life, often using graffiti to commemorate specific virtual locations, events and avatar names or imagery and symbols representing “the grid”, the network of computers needed to create an online community. But even in virtual worlds inspired artworks, he will sometimes include imagery symbolizing current RL events happening around him. The inverse is also true, as he does real life inspired work, he will implement in them elements representing virtual worlds happenings. This is done to make art that blurs the gap between both worlds.
He is influenced by artist such as Kandinski, Dove, Bacon, Klein and Matisse.
