Auckland video editor James Brown works for The Learning Connexion School of Art and Creativity by day, and is a painter by night. A voracious blogger James decided to bring his two great loves together and create a video blog - following his adventure from creative conception to exhibition.
His work is a complex melange of post-modern pop culture, which builds on traditions of collage. Essentially they are studies of James’ experience, reconstituted through a vision of a mythical future. It culminates in a giant painting of goat boy, a futuristic historian who populates James’ works.
This work was entered in the 2009 Wallace Art awards.
The Creative Adventures of James Brown is nine part video blog documenting the passion, excitement, but also the adventure of working as an emerging painter in New Zealand.
Will James make it to the finals? Follow him as his work unfolds.
