Tape Art By Atau
Overview
Atau and Antonia artistically explore the possibilities of adhesive tape. They break up its linear nature through cuts and omissions, insert circular shapes and use gaps to incorporate the surface structure. Colour overlays create perspective-dependent gradients that optically dissolve the lines.
‘My starting point is often structures and grids, into which I zoom in and out with great detail: urban networks, pictorial elements such as pixels, nervous systems that connect with each other. I often work intuitively and without a template.
My artworks and installations emerge organically, and I am fascinated by making decisions during the creative process that influence my artistic outcome.’ Atau Hamos
