Images that have inspired me, thus far, in this project:
(by Casbere)
Antonio Tapies (Spanish artist, born 1923)
Porta Marro (The Spanish Door) - Mixed Media on canvas (1959)
In my opinion, Tapies creates a representaton of a door that means something to him - a door in its simplest form. He does not try to imitate the door exactly, and in doing so, creates something that is personal to him.
And what makes this piece most interesting for me is that he uses sand to give the image height, so it loses some of its flatness.
