加州艺术家Cammie Staros的性感雕塑融合了过去和现在。
传统手工工艺和更现代的工业方法相结合，形成了斯塔斯独特的作品。她的混合创作过程与她对材料的有趣使用相匹配:她使用古老的材料，如粘土，以及更现代的金属和霓虹。土色——红褐色和红色——与飞溅的颜色相互碰撞，提供了一种有趣和风趣的元素。
斯塔罗斯的作品向古希腊和埃及的艺术象征，如蛇致敬。此外，她利用了植根于古埃及精英的纺织品和珠宝的古代符号学符号和人字形图案。这些古老的特征在整个艺术史上都有运用，随着斯塔罗斯在她的雕塑上添加了挑逗、眨眼和红唇，这些特征被赋予了现代的色彩。她似乎在取笑艺术界对女性身体曲线花瓶的痴迷。
The voluptuous sculptures of California-based artist Cammie Staros conflate past and present.
A mix of traditional handcrafting techniques and more contemporary industrial methods inform Staros’ distinctive work. Her hybrid creation process is matched by her interesting use of materials: she works with ancient materials such as clay as well as more modern metals and neons. Earthy colors — ruddy browns and reds — collide with splashes of color, providing an element of playfulness and wit.
Staros’ work pays homage to classical Greek and Egyptian artistic symbols such as the snake. Additionally, she makes use of ancient semiotic symbols and herringbone patterns which are rooted in the textiles and jewelry of the ancient Egyptian elite. These age-old features, which have been employed throughout art history, are given a modern spin as Staros adds flirtatious, winking eyes and red lips to her sculptures. She appears to be poking fun at the art world’s preoccupation with representing the female body as a curvy vase.
