Void Song [Pintillism 36"x22" Framed Canvas] (Collaboration w/ George Wolberg)
“He was always an unusual bird. But now he could feel himself changing. Into what though? He didn’t know. It was too dark to see. So he did what he always did. He sang about it. Maybe this time someone would hear him.”
Michael Flaherty (ChipNipple) was invited to collaborate with Professor George Wolberg, an artist, engineer, and inventor, whose PINTILLISM technique handcrafts bold, dimensional images from fields of small, galvanized metal pins.
On the surface, Flaherty’s colorful, figurative work might seem at odds with Wolberg’s careful studies in light, shadow, and density. But in these collaborative pieces, the artists seamlessly fuse their different approaches to texture and detail, playing with audience perspective to create images that leap off the walls in keen and surprising ways.
This series of canvases highlights two of Flaherty’s most common subjects: birds and isotype hearts, based on his self-designed tattoos. It is Wolberg and Flaherty’s first collaborative series, but the two artists continue to experiment with new ways of blending their distinctive styles.
What is PINTILLISM?
George’s PINTILLISM art is composed of thousands of small pins placed in an exact sequence so that together they form an image.
It is the viewers eye’s and brain that, together with light, fill in the blanks so that a perfect picture is seen with subtle details and shadows. The results are innovative and dramatic.
