#TOAFtakeover #goodmorning I'm Eleanor Angelinetta @eangelinetta . Today I will be sharing some of my #artistic practice with you in preparation for #theotherartfairbristol . Thank you for giving me this opportunity! I am a #contemporary #artist focusing on making #anatomy – something which at first may be perceived as grotesque or unpleasant #beautiful and almost #decorative . I also look at #psychology a lot but will talk more about this later. All of my #pattern #art is hand rendered and I work predominantly in #printmaking and #photography. #blackandwhite have become my signature colours but I have recently been introducing more #colour into my work. I look forward to sharing my practice with you today and hope you enjoy it! Here is a photo of me in my #studio (the bones aren't human!) #theotherartfair #TakeoverTuesday #eleanorangelinetta #theotherartfairbristol #saatchiart #contemporaryart #art #artist #artfair

#TOAFtakeover Having seen one of the 'compound' pieces I thought I would show you the #series as it is at the moment! Each piece takes hours and hours of work and I won't stop until I know a piece is exactly how I want it to be. Trial and error is a huge part of #making #art , alongside #experimentation and mistakes as without these things as an #artist I wouldn't end up with my desired results. Luckily #photoshop and #digitalart makes it easy to manipulate my preliminary #drawings and #paintings however there is still huge potential for mistakes during the #printmaking #process . I will be showing two of the compound series at #theotherartfairbristol but the others will also be available to purchase. #theotherartfair #takeovertuesday #saatchiart #artist #artistsoninstagram #artstagram #artfair #bristol #art #artists #arte #contemporaryart #eleanorangelinetta

#TOAFtakeover from #printmaking to #photography . Photography and #film have become a large part of my work over the past year. With these images, like many others I have projected my #screenprint s onto a #model creating #bizarre and #beautiful images. It's in many ways placing the internal on the external juxtaposing the two as the #patterns are made of internal anatomy and it's interesting to see how it sits so well onto a model. I have also done some #experimental photography with mirrors in rooms and boxes using light projection and #reflection To create #abstract #photographs . Each of the #portraits I will be showing at #theotherartfairbristol are beautifully framed by a fabulous framer- it is through framing photographs that I have really learnt to appreciate the value of the space around and I hope that this will be demonstrated in my stand at #theotherartfair #takeovertuesday #contemporaryart #arte #artists #art #bristol #eleanorangelinetta
