About the Item

“Buddha” is a unique acrylic on canvas by David Hollier. Hollier masterfully paints image using the text from Metta Karuna Prayer as his medium. This piece is signed and comes ready to hang. David Hollier hails from Wolverhampton, England and currently resides in Bushwick, Brooklyn. Other than producing art, Hollier teaches part-time at Parsons The Newschool for Design. His role as a teacher and an artist makes him constantly question the world around him. Hollier's work can be seen in the form of murals, street art and in galleries all over the world.  In the series, "Image Verbosa", David Hollier creates images of cultural and political icons as composites of their famous words in the form of painted and typed text. Part social commentary and part documentary, Hollier's work literally blurs the lines between pop culture and politics and invites us to consider the endurance and influence of words. A self-professed documentarian of current affairs, his work is defined by a strong graphical aesthetic in various mediums including watercolor, spray paint, oil and acrylic.

Tathagata: Contemporary Mixed Media Buddha Painting by Sax Berlin
By Sax Berlin
Located in Brecon, Powys
Tathagata - a Pali or Sanscrit word used primarily by Siddartha Gautama Buddha to refer to himself. However it also the term for one who has reached enlightenment through Buddhist principles & has as many as eight different meanings. Generally accepted is the translation one who has thus arrived. And this vivid painting from Berlin has arrived! Drawing on his knowledge of the faith & his research into the theme this is a beautiful & informed rendition of Buddha. The colours are vibrant but enable one to look deep and take the essence of tranquility from the image. This Buddha would sit happily on an altar or a home corner of peace and tranquility, giving an essence of calm & preparedness to those who stand before it. Oil paint using hand ground pigments, 24 ct gold and silver...
