VIM Digital Features 2013: Evan Steenson, Conceptual Artist

Evan Steenson  evan-steenson-1325953200-logo1   #Follow Evan On twitter 

Evan Steenson is an emerging Canadian conceptual artist who works in digital

media. He is a member of the 1313 Gallery and lives and works in Toronto.

OUTPUT

Avoiding formalism and representation, Evan’s compositions present us with a

renegotiation of the art-as-object versus art-as-image discourse. Often presented

in series, each individual composition becomes an integral component in the

larger concept. As such, these works pose new questions around what it means

to create and display a visual concept.

AESTHETIC 

The visual presentation of Evan’ s concepts oscillates from the bright, utopian

forms of geometric abstraction to the meta-modern, reconfigured and

hypermodified forms of our post millennial culture.

MEDIA

Evan works with a variety of broadly accessible design software, appropriating

and repurposing commercial tools as creative media. In doing so, his

compositions point to the literal and conceptual boundaries of “new” media, as

well as its inherent possibilities.

STATEMENT

My body of work to date invites a review, reinterpretation, and re-questioning

of the axioms of visual abstraction through the most important social lens of the

twenty-first century – the computer monitor.

Art & Poetry: Colors…

“Colors”  by Laura LME ©

My name is love
my color is red
vivid drops of ruby
poured over your skin
showers of ink and paint
dominated by shadows
in the light of antic flames
burning your heart

My name is pain
my color is orange
veins of flowing fluid
deep slopes of sharpness
in the cavities of time
pressing against your organs
extracting bitter tears
contracting your soul

My name is hope
my color is yellow
wires of metallic nets
needles of faith
spread around you
thin rays of thunder
conducting electricity
empowering your mind

My name is strength
my color is power
shades of acceptance
nuances of fight
depth of belief
brushes of inspiration
dipped in beauty
painting the canvas of life!
