Stone Chun Shi 艺术家石村
Stone Chun Shi, an artist based in New York, uses the term “Stone Oil Cube” to describe his innovative method of oil painting. Each of his paintings consists of more than ten thousand three-dimensional colored cubes made from premixed oil paint. Stone’s work covers a variety of subject matter, including Chinese and US currency, pop culture icons such as Marilyn Monroe, Miles Davis, Taylor Swift, and the Mona Lisa. With their sculpted brushstrokes and exuberant color palettes, Stone’s paintings give the impression of abstract art from up close and photo-realistic figurative art from a distance. Stone conveys a sense of complexity in his artworks and is interested in creating a balance between pop art and fine art.
