As part of our event series Meet the Artists the artist speaks ELIOT theSUPER about his work and gives insight into the techniques and work processes he uses.
About the artist:
ELIOT theSUPER is a full-time freelance artist, musician and curator. He is one of the pioneers of the German hip hop movement. Everyday objects, mass media, junk food and snapshots taken with his smartphone are the content of his work.
In the style of pop art, ELIOT combines the roughness of his graffiti past with stencil, embroidery and screen printing. Since 2020 also more often sculptural and as NFTs. He prefers to develop series of works and multibles, as the effect of different colouring is exciting, each creative idea offers several solutions and through duplication a larger audience becomes accessible.
About the event:
In a relaxed, private atmosphere, supported by videos and photos, EIOT tells you what it took to build the donut sculpture on display, but also how his stencil images are created.
In addition, it is about techniques such as Photoshop, 3D, stencil, spray paint, model making, synthetic resin and fibreglass, about intensity and where the ideas come from, or why the artist always takes 365 days off at a stretch.
This artist talk with its density of information is a special treat for art lovers, collectors and all those who are curious to learn more about the ideas, techniques and work of the artist ELIOT theSuper.
The Artist Talk is included in the regular ticket price.
