James Roper Paintings

Feb 18, 2012 by     1 Comment     Posted under: Design

Highlight for the multi-talented English artist James Roper (illustrator, painter and sculptor) with these colorful and eye-catching paintings from the series “Exvoluta” and “Hypermass” plunging us into his unique and surreal world. “The construction of each painting fuses disparate images from a variety of sources such as fashion magazines, animation stills, comics, the Internet as well as my own photo’s and drawings. I predominantly choose images and try to create forms which I feel register a visual ‘peak shift’, a term given to the phenomena of ‘neurological attraction’ that appears in both humans and animals to an extreme characterisation of an object. Peak shift has been suggested by the neuroscientist V.S. Ramachandran as one of the ’10 universal laws of art’.”
