1. Introduction
As more and more people become familiar with artworks and incorporate them into their homes and daily lives, there are more opportunities to "directly purchase" works by talented artists from all over Japan, and art is evolving from something special to something that is integrated into everyday life. One platform that has attracted attention is "FROMARTIST." It directly connects artists active throughout Japan with their works, providing a new system that makes art more accessible to buyers.
This time, we will delve into the latest art trends and introduce the appeal of "FROMARTIST" and how it is expanding the world of art enjoyment.
2. The appeal of "direct purchase" that brings art closer to everyday life
In the past, art was seen as something to be appreciated through galleries or museums, or as an expensive collection owned by the wealthy. However, with the spread of social media and online platforms, a new form of art is becoming more common: artists can directly exhibit their works and buyers can acquire them. "FROMARTIST" has made this possible.
The greatest appeal of "FROMARTIST" is that you can directly experience the thoughts and background of the artist. Rather than simply purchasing a work, you can come into contact with the story and passion of the creator, which makes the work feel special. Furthermore, because there is no intermediary involved, prices are transparent, making it easy for first-time art buyers to get their hands on. In this article, we will introduce the unique appeal of FROMARTIST along with the actual works for sale.
3. New value created by sustainable art
In an age where consideration for the global environment is required, the perspective of "sustainability" is also attracting attention in the art world. Artworks using recycled and natural materials are on the rise, and works with the theme of a sustainable society are gaining popularity.
Featured Artist: _m_art
_m_art is an artist who creates works using various recycled materials such as eggshells and coffee grounds. Her works make use of the characteristics of the materials themselves, while also conveying a delicate yet powerful message. You can enjoy beautiful art while being conscious of environmental issues.
[Work title] Dolphin Blue Waves (F6 20241101)
[Artist name] _m_art
[Year of production] 2024.10
[Artwork orientation and size] Portrait: 41cm long x 31.8cm wide x 1.5cm thick
[Framed] No
Description of the work:
*The photo showing the product in the interior may differ from the actual size. Please see the size details.
Details: Acrylic paint, modeling paste, medium, eggshell. Signed on the back. Includes vertical and horizontal metal fittings and a hanging cord. Weight: 380g.
This is an abstract painting of waves.
The gentle dolphin blue sea, the pure white spray of the waves, and the gold glowing from deep within all blend together gently.
Blue is a calming color, so seeing it every day will make you feel at peace.
If left alone, the brain tends to think of negative things one after another, but like being hit by the spray of a wave, may it wash everything away, purifying your entire body and allowing you to move forward in a clear state.
This is a three-dimensional piece that uses gold and shiny paint in some parts, as well as eggshells, and I think it will show many different expressions depending on the lighting, the angle from which you view it, the time of day, and your mood that day.
The gold adds a touch of elegance and warmth, making it suitable for both Japanese and Western-style rooms. It can be displayed either vertically or horizontally.
