BOLS - Stencil Sketch 0219
Spraypaint on paper, 864 x 618mm (framed)
BOLS is a Christchurch based artist whose work explores the non-figurative, nonrepresentational potential of stencil art. Inspired by graffiti, post-graffiti, urban space (both physically and conceptually) and various popular and artistic histories, his abstract work eschews the established mechanical image-making process of stencilling in favour of dense spatial constructions that are essentially sketches built from a range of stencil-based mark-making techniques. The effect is something like a microscopic close up of an aerosol laden concrete wall, not created with a final product in mind, but the result of chance and instinct.
