Peter Hamlin
Flower Machine, Flowers in Vase, Pink and Red Surreal Botanical Still Life

2023

About the Item

A futuristic botanical hybrid is the focus of this fantastical landscape in acrylic ink on canvas by Peter Hamlin. The meticulously detailed flower is whimsical and surreal, held in an intricately patterned vase. More imagined botany surrounds the plant, thriving in its pink and red habitat. Signed, dated and titled on verso. This series is in part inspired by blurring boundaries between nature and technology. The monochromatic palette draws from traditional ceramic and applied arts patterns and narrative forms. The paintings are coated with a special Golden Paint UV filter and a matte medium which imparts a subtle kind of porcelain feel. The price for framing is separate, please inquire with the gallery. Envisioning a future in which technology is indistinguishable from life, Peter Hamlin blends fantasy and science in compositions that breathe with awareness and futuristic hybridity in vibrant color, synthetic layers and meticulous, delineated systems. In Hamlin’s imagined environments, nanopeople, robots, cyborg plants and curious otherworldly organisms coexist. The artist’s work explores how we adapt as a species, determine our future and prepare for what’s to come as technologies radically change how humans experience and interact with the world. The precision and exactitude with which Hamlin paints seduces the viewer with beauty and beckons one into his supernatural world. The artist was awarded an MFA in Painting at Lehman College, Bronx, NY and a BFA in Illustration from Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, CA. Hamlin lives and works in Brooklyn.

Kevin Red Star grew up on the Crow reservation in southern Montana, a member of a highly creative family. He was known as the go-to artist for all school projects. He was chosen to be in the first group of students at the Institute of American Indian Arts in Santa Fe in the late sixties, when the founders personally visited Native villages and reservations nationwide and recruited the most talented youngsters from each. The school provided a learning environment of tribal tradition, world art history, and current trends. Open studios, well stocked with supplies, encouraged individual experimentation and collaboration. Students mined their ancient customs for content, and then created exciting new forms to provide current relevance. Red Star and some of his friends in their graduating class continued their studies at the San Francisco Art Institute before embarking on their careers. They attracted immediate notice in New York and Paris, as well as established art centers throughout the United States. And they went on to change the face of modern Indian art...
