Multi-Dimensional Cubism Artworks

These Kent Michael Smith Paintings Embody and Abstract Concept

— November 12, 2013 — Art & Design
These color-enriched art works by Kent Michael Smith embody an abstract visual aesthetic. Entitled 'Layer over Layer', this set of geometric compositions is a fresh and modern translation of a classic cubist painting style, made popular by iconic artist Pablo Picasso.

Mixing electric-hued color washes with angled shapes, these Kent Michael Smith paintings appear three-dimensional and almost sculptural at first glance. While his bright color combinations catch a viewer's attention, the artist's strategically placed geometric elements reveal a complex study of depth and perspective.

In addition to their cubism-inspired roots, Smith's paintings also mimic crystallized forms that are both sharp edged and irregular. The shapes are very similar to those of organic minerals, precious stones and aged rock formations found in our natural world.
Trend Themes
1. Color-enriched Artworks - Opportunity for artists to explore the use of vivid colors and geometric shapes to create visually appealing and multi-dimensional art.
2. Cubism-inspired Geometric Compositions - Possibility to reinterpret and modernize the classic cubist painting style by incorporating vibrant color washes and intricate geometric elements.
3. Nature-inspired Crystallized Forms - Potential for artists to draw inspiration from organic minerals, precious stones, and aged rock formations to create abstract and visually intriguing artworks.
Industry Implications
1. Art - Artists and galleries can cater to the demand for color-enriched and multi-dimensional art pieces that offer a fresh perspective for art enthusiasts.
2. Interior Design - Designers can incorporate cubism-inspired geometric compositions and nature-inspired crystallized forms in their interior design projects to create visually striking and unique spaces.
3. Fashion - Fashion designers and brands can draw inspiration from color-enriched artworks and cubism-inspired geometric compositions to create innovative and vibrant clothing designs.
