Fluid Art: Capturing Movement and Light
Chris has spent more than 30 years developing his unique brand of fluid painting. By incorporating a dizzying variety of media into a liquid medium, he captures the incredible interplay of motion and light that has become his hallmark. His creations, microscopic paintings that constantly change, are preserved at precisely the right moment through either photography or film using specially developed optics. Thanks to Chris's pioneering techniques, his art pieces are timelessly organic, completely compelling, and notably distinct in the modern art scene.
The Art of Small-Scale Creations
All the paintings are naturally occurring events that Chris creates in his studio using organic ingredients. Nothing is digitally enhanced and painstaking effort goes into ensuring the finished piece faithfully represents the colours that are visible at the time of capturing the painting or film. Organic particles are used to add a natural randomness to the flow and feel of the images and the pigments are chosen both for their look and for how they behave. The paintings only exist for a short time before they evolve into something different and the moment is gone.
