From Scratchpad
Welcome to the Thewikiartist/painting1 mini wiki at The Wikia Scratchpad!
You can use the box below to create new pages on this wiki. Make sure you type [[Category:Thewikiartist/painting1]] on the page before you save it to make it part of the Thewikiartist/painting1 wiki (preload can be enabled to automate this task, by click this link and save that page. After enabled, you should purge this page, if you still see this message).
This is the wiki site for Painting.1. Painting.1 is a database of paintings. You can explore the Painting.1 database at
http://www.thewikiartist.com
There are also listings of up and coming exhibitions of my work and opportunities to get involved online.
All images from my Painting.1 database contain within them the web address of this wiki site. I have used this wiki to post my opinions about the images. However if you have seen an exhibition of the work online or in a gallery, please get involved and feel free to write anything you want to about the images.
This may include editing/removing my own ideas about the images and replacing them with your own. It maybe that you want to discuss your impressions with others who have seen the images, or start new pages linked to this one about the particular image you own. In this way you can collaborate in creating new narratives about the images. Those of you who own an image with this web address in may also want to act as guardians of the web page. After all, you own the images and may not wish to have a painting that contains a link to a vandalised wiki site, hung up in your home. Or do you? (within the rules of our host wiki, Scratchpad wiki Labs please)
To edit the wiki, click on 'edit' and start typing.
Artists Original Intentions
The images I have created are cityscapes and they are made up of symbols that relate to a story I have written. I broke down the story into chapters and represented each chapter with a painting. You can find my ideas in more detail on my blog, http://thewikiartist.blogspot.com or you can explore the database itself at www.thewikiartist.com. For me the images represent the insides of a visual database. When I look at the images I can imagine new narratives where the symbols collide and converge. In other words I don't just see symbols that represent the existing stories, but I actually perceive a real city where new stories can develop.
