Hello everyone, I was wondering if you could help me.


As part of my art exam this year I have to work around a certain word, I have chosen 'erode'. As part of my research and development on this word I have to research artists that work in a similar way to me and inspire me.

I already have a few in mind but I was wondering if any of you had any ideas. Interpret the word in any way you like, whether it be the way the artist uses texture, tone, chipped paint, burns material, anything. Erode can mean a lot of things, from rock to river beds to time to rust.


Here is a definition to get your juices flowing:

to eat into or away; destroy by slow consumption or disintegration: Battery acid had eroded the engine. Inflation erodes the value of our money.

to form (a gully, butte, or the like) by erosion.

corrode, waste, ravage, spoil.

To wear (something) away by or as if by abrasion: Waves eroded the shore.

To eat into; corrode.

To make or form by wearing away: The river eroded a deep valley.

To cause to diminish or deteriorate as if by eating into or wearing away: "Long enduring peace often erodes popular resolution"

remove soil or rock; "Rain eroded the terrace"


There are just a few interpretations of the word, and although I'm focusing more on the geological side of things, working with textures and mixed media and book binding, please feel free to point me in any inspiring direction.


thank you very much for your help!

deviantART Notice

Deviousness

What exactly makes someone a candidate for deviousness? Well, if we went by artistic merit, we would probably think that someone who is not afraid to experiment with multiple mediums and venture into unknown territory would be a good candidate. If we were to go by community involvement we would probably look at someone who goes out of their way to help people further their own art through encouragement and well thought out critiques in a manner that inspires the person to push themselves further. Well, this month we are lucky enough to have `northengirl who fills both areas and then some! A true artist and a true one of a kind voice in this community, congratulations to you `northengirl!

Here in this life
We seem so lost.
On this side of brightness
We don't know where to go.
