Artist
painting Chuck Tingley large-scale mural at Artpark
Western New York
artist Chuck Tingley is creating a permanent mural at
Artpark on the art gallery's north exterior wall. He is using spray
paint, acrylic, markers and stencils to create the images pictured.
"The patterns are inspired by an artist named Robert Smithson, and he's
the creator of land art," Tingley said Wednesday. "Artpark started as a
residency for people that did land art. And it was made in the name of
Robert Smithson."
"So, the patterns I took from some of his sculpture work, and I turned
them into stencils." ... "It's sort of like a Mother Nature-esque
theme, where she's releasing these goldfinch birds," he said.
