Steve Lovetts

This week I was very delighted to have Steve Lovett to come and show us some his works of art pieces, and also which he goes on to tell us some of the statements and ideas that when on to make and produce of his fantastic pieces.Well for what I have come notice in his work is that he’s basically based his most of his work on the relationship, the relationship between his friends and family and also making a political statement, and at the same time while he’s also doing this kind of work and how he’s approaching it in he’s own way by hitting what he wants to bring to life with he’s type of artwork. What I’ve noticed now with Steve Lovett work is that he always uses different the styles of layers and color tones of an image, which also puts the image out of place.

I really liked one of his exhibitions that Steve showed us the one where the screen prints on the wall are like talking to each other, I really liked that piece, I thought that was very creative in a way that how he managed to capture there voices and also playing them through speakers, making it sound like as if his artwork pieces were talking to each other in the gallery.

I later heard that those images on the wall were good friends with him that have passed away.

I truly think that was really effective, it’s as if the images came to life with the sound of people talking, still can’t manage to think how he would come up with that idea. The other piece of art work that Steve done that I really liked was the one that was called ‘remain’, that work alone shows what Steve’s like (personally wise) and what he must have been feeling. Overall Steve's work was truly jaw-dropping for me, especially from that audio imagery one because it was mainly bringing what he thinks art is to him was.

  1. Thanks Samson,

    You need to get into the habit of looking on eMIT for more information on the lectures, for example, you wouldn't need to talk about "one of his exhibitions where the screenprints on the wall are like talking to each other" - you would know the title and date of this exhibition, and probably find out lots of other information that would improve your grade.

    Also, don't forget we actually came up with a "blog question" in class, you don't seem to have really answered it...
