Cease your Limitations Feat. Alexa Meade & Phil Hansen
Art and limitations never go hand in hand and to embrace the outreach of art, one needs to start eliminating limitations and accepting broader perspectives. Even the Cambridge dictionary defines ‘perspective’ as an “art of representing three-dimensional work on a two-dimensional surface so as to give the right impression of the picture, height, width, depth, and position in relation to each other”. However this art technique embargoes on the traditional concept and creates an anomaly to the two-dimensional art. The artist, Alexa Meade practices art using human bodies as a canvas that shall provide a three-dimensional picture appearing like flat canvasses to the world. The luminous work presented in the artwork below by Alexa Meade provides a glimpse on chasing creativity in an opposite direction.

In the context of limitations bounding creativity, Phil Hansen an artist with a permanent nerve damage ‘embracing the shake’ as he profoundly termed the issue, started creating art within his own limitations; deriving an unheard term of ceasing your limitations in art. There has been decades and centuries old work displayed in the galleries and museums for that symbolises art as limitless. Pointillism as the creation of limitations for Phil, the journey was not as gloomy as it seemed however instead of thinking out of the box (a touché), he developed thinking inside the box. As a result, his creations spoke about magnificence and reverence and that is anecdotal in his entire work throughout, a thumbnail impression of his work displayed below enlightens the audience and Phil’s own words conclude this article, “ We need to first become limited to become limitless”.
