[Collection 1]

Wow! really impressive!

[Replete]

Cheers very much MM and JP.

[stringer64]

Very, very clever! Love it Replete!

[Dellboyy]

Loving these latest pieces, and this is just stupidly good! You make getting that perspective spot on look easy, and it's a really tricky thing to capture!

[My Name is Frank]

I love it! Amazing work

[temple]

indeed this is proper sick, its rare an artist feel relevent - there are hundreds of artists trying to be different for the sake of being different - but from the little i know of Replete id say there simply arent enough process's out there for him to truly express himself - this is truly genius, i hope it, and he continues to evolve.

[jcmerrick]

This is spectacular work replete! Looking forward to seeing more!

[doyle]

loving this experimentation with a different medium and refreshing to see someone take things to another level.

[Replete]

Ta fellas and yes the persective is a tricky part but with this one I wanted to see how small I could paint it in spraypaint open up new grounds for interactions in the environment I could place them and that's even more tricky but you know I love a challenge.

[Replete]

Thankyou very much folks and you're right there's so many mediums to create with in order to express my ideas and emotions and so little time to even try a few which constantly motivates me to keep evolving and pushing my boundaries as I thrive on learning new elements that can be incoporated into my artwork.

Excelsior!

[PRO]

Nice.. good to see someone trying new things, thinking out side the box. keep up the good work

[Replete]

cheers Pro. I've been working on some more over the bank holiday.

there's a feature on them at the minute on the excellent Graffuturism blog:

[rinaceirde]

only just caught up with this. Absolutely amazing work congrats!

[Replete]

thanks Rinaceirde. I've completed several more cling film pieces so far this week and plan to hide away tomorrow in a derelict factory doing some more pieces whilst half the country looks at their TV screens at an expensive temporary distraction.

[Replete]

First up is Big Fish in a Dead Pond painted this on good friday in the bosses office in a derelict factory.

Going back to my skeletal futuristic letter style (I came up with the concept back in 2007) but had to wait until I found the perfect time and place to do it.

It spells out bones too:




The second is entitled "She Could Steal But She Could Not Rob" in honour of the She Came In Through The Bathroom Window track from the Beatles medley from Abbey Road:



The origami female figure is part painted on the wall/cling-film/broken window board and floorboards to complete the illusion of her breaking in through the window.

The third is entitled "Traverse Time's Inclination" and features an origami female form descending a staircase in a derelict factory.
As the figure descends she ages with each step from childhood to adulthood:



This is partly inspired by Duchamp's Nude Descending A Staircase 2 and again is painted on layers of cling-film.

[wizzy]

Fan piggin tastic that Replete!.

[Warm Gun]

Really like them!
I've never heard of painting on cling-film before, what an excellent idea.

[illu]

all the work is amazing, but the bones piece kills me - massive respect!!!!

[Warm Gun]

The locations are perfect too!

[saint]

kudos, i think the style of bones is immense, well done sir.

[balibob]

Fantastic, well done that man.

[Replete]

thanks for the compliments guys.

And warmgun if you get time check out the first series of experiments I did over several layers of dpeth on cling film and my anamorphic animation:

[dasium]

really really cool.... constantly impressed with your recent posts Replete.... keep up the good work

[Replete]

Thanks Dasium and thre's plenty more of these in the works that'll interact in different ways with the environment into which they are placed.

Nice one, I hadn't seen that thread before.

Looks like your clingfilm pieces have really progressed in a very short time Replete. I can barely see the film in your latest example!

I can't think of any other artists doing anything like this. Excellent stuff indeed!

[Replete]

Well I'm a fast learner when it comes to techniques and since those first two experiments I found out how best to apply the film to make it less visible in the final result.

Lighting does play a part as do the surfaces it's attached to and the amount of layers of film used. These new ones use on a single layer for max transparency but that makes it so fragile and tricky to paint on.

The second and third ones were painted whilst balanced atop the rickety carcass of an old fridge and several times I nearly put my hand or other body parts through the film whilst trying not to fall off.

[doyle]

really liking the staircase one Replete, and great to see how this new idea is coming along.

[Replete]

thanks Doyle. I think you'll like the next ones in the series too.

[Replete]

this one was a quick material test painting my origami lettering on a different type of plastic sheeting but not a success as it didn't retain it's taughtness and wrinkled during painting:

[Replete]

Hi all,

i've just released my latest prints.

It features two images pictured below:





Both are A3 in size 16.5"x11.7" in a signed ltd edition of 25 per image plus 5 AP's per image printed as giclee on 315gsm fine textured archival paper.

They are extensively hand finished with spraypaint making each unique and lovingly painted. The AP's have more handfinishing featuring gold paint and are varnished.

Like with my last self released print editions they'll cost £30/$49 each or if you buy both images you get a discount and it'd cost £50/$80 for both.

The AP's will cost £35/$57.

Also like with my last release one lucky buyer will win an original canvas by me and another few of the buyers will win a sketch/canvas or a print of mine.

I've also impoved the packaging on this release, using larger diameter postal tubes in order to avoid creases.

The prints are available from here:

All the best,

Replete
