A Minimalistic view of a Fork (aka I see a Fork).
Its time for Minimalism Still Life!
Minimal Art is a school of abstract painting and sculpture where any kind of personal expression is kept to a minimum, in order to give the work a completely literal presence. The resulting work is characterized by extreme simplicity of form and a deliberate lack of expressive content.
The central principle is that not the artist’s expression, but the medium and materials of the work are its reality. In other words: a work of art should not refer to anything other than itself.
As minimalist painter Frank Stella once said: “What you see is what you see”.
