Tegenstellingen zijn nodig, leerde ik bij Filosofie op de middelbare school.
Immers, als je niet weet wat armoede is, zul je rijkdom nooit ten volle waarderen. Dat tegenstellingen ook in de kunst een een element van humor kunnen zijn, bewijst kunstenares Nancy Fouts.
Nancy Fouts is an American-born artist who lives in London for her marketing career. However, it is her fine-art sculptures which has caught everyone’s attention. Her surrealist work poetically marries surprising items; together creating paradox. She has a knack for creating an atmosphere of curiosity and intrigue with her audience. Sometimes her sculptures seem to carry an ambiguous social commentary. Although the artist reassured us, her sculptures are in fact “not [that] deep, but it is entertaining and it makes people smile!” To enjoy more of Nancy’s amazing surreal sculptures, check out her website, here.
