Metal art Streetart - Pennyboy
The artist Pennyboy is originally from Rome and works primarily with metal. In particular, he uses aluminum or iron for his works. Some of the artist's works can be seen at ARTMUC.
He designed a cover page for the famous Vogue magazine. Japanese characters are depicted on this work. The three-dimensional work of art is made of iron, but is still lightweight as the material is very thin. The technique used is UV printing, an industrial process. The iron is then worked by hand by the artist. To do this, it must first be heated. Details reminiscent of street art can be seen on the surface. These are silver-grey lettering.
In contrast to the print, the next object shown is a painted work of art depicting Marilyn Monroe in the style of Andy Warhol. Acrylic paint was used for the artwork. The surface is also made of iron and this work of art is also very light. It reflects elements of Dali. There are also facets of street art in the work. A tiger is depicted in the background and curtains and gray columns can also be seen. Other details include the running facial features of Marilyn Monroe and an empty can lying on the floor in the foreground. The artwork is therefore very varied.
