FIRST POST - Recent Work - "Industrial Fragments"

Welcome to my blog!

For my first blog entry, I'm highlighting a series I've just begun called "Industrial Fragments." These new works are representations of ancient sculptural fragments, painted onto industrial polypropylene - polypropylene being a modern tarp-like material used during construction. The works are a mix of the ancient and the contemporary, highlighting their similarites as building materials - many ancient sculptures were smashed and used for construction.

Please let me know your thoughts. Also be sure to check out the rest of my work at http://www.derekoverfield.com/ and http://www.etsy.com/shop/derekoverfieldart
