The main concept of my studio practise is all based around the post war movement of the 1950’s and 60’s from ‘POP ART’.
This art movement has always been an interest of mine, and from this interest, I am developing new works in my studio practise.
After a lot of researching and documenting the works of different ‘Pop’ artists, I decided to base my dissertation around ‘Pop Art’.
The origins of ‘Pop Art’ started in Great Britain as early as 1947. I discussed three British ‘Pop’ artists who began this movement, Eduardo Paolozzi, Richard Hamilton and Peter Blake. I analysed and discussed what these artists found so appealing about popular culture and, how they made their own expressions and interpretations of the times they were in.
