About the work
Creating the ultimate maximalist glamouflage “Hidden in Plain Sight’ is put together by pieces of paintings to create a new and bold artwork. Pulling together various inspirations Gjoen creates a multilayered artwork of discovery. The more you look the more you find, which is true to his method of starting each piece with research. The butterflies are from The Opificio delle pietre dure, literally meaning Workshop of semi-precious stones, which is a public institute of the Italian Ministry for Cultural Heritage based in Florence. The base of the camouflage depicts the ceiling of Giovanni Battista Tiepolo’s “Nuptial Allegory” at the Ca’ Rezzonico in Venice. The trompe l’oeil of the ceiling creating depth and layers drawing us into the picture. Two still lifes from Gjoen’s private collection intertwine to create an imaginative multifaceted reality.Medium: UV Inks and Spot Varnish on Aluminium Substrate Panel
