This is a video by artist Tim Novak. Created in New York City for the Tribeca Project 2008. Starring Mike Puckett. Credited as "Puc". Hope you enjoy. Any thoughts or comments?
My approach to art making, specifically drawing and painting has mostly been with the idea in mind that I would not have any idea in-mind. I do not think about what I am creating, only how I am creating it. I pay attention to technical excellence and the theories behind the work rather than the subject matter of the particular piece. I intentionally clear out my thoughts and attempt to create from my subconscious. It has become a series of mark-making that takes shape into organic forms. Since I create without intentions of something specific it leaves the work open to a variety of interpretations. All of which compile my interpretation for the artwork and pass on to future viewers.
From time to time I will post images of my artwork. I would like your comments on how you interpret the subject matter.
I cannot guarantee that my blogs are always going to be about art. I'm not always about art (even though you might think so).
I don't always post my blogs when I write them. This was written on 8/2-2006
I've been back from
The last night of the exhibition I met Greg. Greg didn’t intentionally come to the show. He was just passing by on his way home from work and decided to stop in. I had a conversation with Greg about my work which was an installation consisting of sculpture, graffiti and video with photo projections. Greg had made a connection of concepts about God, Jesus and faith through the artwork that he had not previously understood before. We talked about things going on in Greg’s life and how he desired a deeper relationship with God. Before Greg left the gallery that night I asked him if I could pray for him. He said, “Yes, I would appreciate that”. After we prayed together Greg said something profound. He said, “You know Mike, you really showed me love tonight. You showed me love through your artwork”. Greg told me that he found a better understanding of God through the artwork and He sees God as being “Love”.
