Art on Cardboard

Cardboard is a wonderful material to work with as an artist because it has immediately recognizable connotations.  It reminds us of work, of life, of the everyday and the mundane.  It also lends a street-art-esque context to whatever you put on it.  Beyond all that, it's extremely cheap and accessible.  Beginning sometime last year, I now take the cardboard in which products are packed and shipped to my job and recycle it into unique little pieces of art.


It says "destroy me" in clear glow-in-the-dark/uv reactive dimensional paint.



"When you see me baby will you scream or will you laugh?" lyrics from Crows 1 by Aesop Rock




The tentacles have glow-in-the-dark/uv reactive suction cups.


What do you see?







Dream...


Lies lies lies lies lies...







More glow-in-the-dark suction cups





These paintings will be listed in my etsy shop (Fever Dream Arts) for $2-5 each and will also be on sale at Anjipan's What is That Though? Art Show January 26th at Field 10 Studios in Ronkonkoma.
