Who have I looked into?
Hans Peter Feldmann is a visual artist who moves in the universe of the everyday. he takes from the universe the materials, objects and images along with themes.
He states that all his work is based on personal experiences and it is a way of transforming experiences, obsessions and intuitions into language, an attitude that which is common to many artists. The materials he uses is the everyday stuff that habitually surrounds him. The magazine photos, family snaps, postcards, books, objects etc. With his material and his themes, Feldmann wants to place himself on the margans of art history in order to represent the everyday.
The images and objects presented inhabit the daily life along with the narratives which are constructed with all of these materials. His work involves many different social contexts that resemble to Emin’s and Gonzalez-Torres works of the everyday objects.
How does Hans Peter Feldmann relate to my own work?
The themes in my own work closely resemble to the everyday objects that holds narratives from my own personal experiences such as my English and Chinese foods and drinks readymades. He also relates to my other artwork of the Chinese and english illness sculpture where you have the Chinese squatting toilet and the english bricks which also consists of the everyday object.
