'Melting Midlands' (2006)
Acrylic and oil on canvas
six foot person & work to scale
Shay Kun
Shay Kun utilises a rich, bold colour scheme and a highly legible figurative style to render paintings that exhibit the humorous interplay of the stratified world socio-political situations. Implementing vibrant acrylic hues and imagery from Saturday morning cartoons, urban magazines and internet clip art, Kun lends a universality to his visual language. De-individualising his figures and compositions and edging into the viewer's everyday subconscious, Kun uncovers a path to an otherwise complex issue, ultimately subverting Pop-culture by accessing its latent socio-political content.
Kun creates moments of absurdity within otherwise charged atmospheres while simultaneously paying homage to the culture of backyard rural neighborhoods. A heavy handed and self-conscious approach to paint simultaneously lends Kuns work both expressionistic and kitsch qualities while retaining a thrift store tongue in cheek façade to mirror imbalanced social frequencies.
