ABOUT the ART and the ARTIST 

One of Opies 3D images project, Krobath is a vibrant coloured image of three people standing. 

The 3 dimensional lenticular image in Opies unique reductive style evokes both a visual and spatial experience of the world.

Krobath reflects this with its 3 dimensional depth end endearing moving images contained within a frame.

The work of Julian Opie is known throughout the world. With public commissions from New York to Seoul, London to Calgary, and an uninterrupted flow of international museum exhibitions, Opie’s distinctive formal language is instantly recognisable and reflects his artistic preoccupation with the idea of representation and the means by which images are perceived and understood. “Everything you see is a trick of the light,” Opie writes. “Light bouncing into your eye, light casting shadows, creating depth, shapes, colours. Turn off the light and it’s all gone. We use vision as a means of survival and it’s essential to take it for granted in order to function, but awareness allows us to look at looking and by extension look at ourselves and be aware of our presence. Drawing, drawing out the way that process feels and works brings the awareness into the present and into the real world, the exterior world.” Always exploring different techniques both cutting edge and ancient.
