Great art challenges the status quo. American Pop Artist Roy Lichtenstein wanted his work to appear machine-like and used bendy dots throughout his work to symbolize the printing press. He often depicted the emotional extremes of life, trying to capture the single frame climax of an event. My challenge was to join these climaxes into a single snapshot.
He also would manipulate the works of others, transforming their styles to marry with his. This inspired me to do the same with his work, creating a new, hybrid style. For this reason, the Lichtenstein artwork was actually the first piece created for the Signature Series. Lichtenstein’s signature is actually on the first page but rather than cut and paste it, I worked around his signature while keeping the original binding intact.
For the NFT, I animated his Signature and dot structures, surrounded by a neon, pulsating border that shows different perspectives of his works.
