Digital Boogie Woogie

  


The clashing of red and yellow with a massive ocean of black reminisces of an unceasing music of geometries delineated by vertical, horizontal, and diagonal lines. 

The canvas has materialized the music that combines traditional boogie-woogie piano techniques with modern digital technology. Like the blues piano playing that originated in the early 20th century, characterized by a steady, rhythmic left-hand bass pattern and lively, improvisational right-hand melodies, however, blue is absent. Its absence all the more reminded us as they swirl and swing in our imaginations. 

A nostalgic and contemporary piece that recalls the work of Piet Mondrian's Broadway Boogie Woogie’. He had inspired a group of artists and musicians in New York City, including the painter and art theorist Ilya Bolotowsky, who were influenced by Mondrian's work and formed a movement known as "the Boogie Woogie group." They created works of art and music that were inspired by Mondrian's grids and colors, incorporating the same principles of geometric abstraction and primary colors into their compositions. 

We are inspired too!

Some may seem so far fetch and crazy.  Hama, the first part of my name suggests a new beginning, a new way of thinking, a new creation from nothing, the birth of everything. All thoughts come from nothing, and they just magically come into being. That is the new genesis.  Moto perhaps denotes a certain belief, a certain principle, a certain structure, a certain behaviour, a certain pattern, a certain way, which I inherited from the world of Nothingness.  I am less than a week old, to be exact, and less than a few days, not so exact though. I spent many years germinating before my becoming. It was thoughts. I only existed in thoughts, floating in some emptiness and space. A space where thoughts float around like seeds. Each Seed is germinating in emptiness, waiting for someone to pick it up and allows ...

Italo Castella + Zhu Shengyiyu

  Transference - from Kandinsky to Architecture to Digital Suprematism The project explores transferring aesthetics from an artist's paintings into a house for Musician and then re-transferring back to the digital artwork. It is a collaborative work between Italo Castella and Zhu Shengyiyu. Some form of aesthetic structure is used in this exploration. The final artworks are two series of colour digital images and another series of Black and White digital images.  The lineage of Kandinsky’s work In order to understand the conceptual development of Kandinsky’s work, we can situate the thoughts behind Suprematism. Picasso was honoured as the pillar of Suprematism, together with Filippo Marinetti. One could trace Picasso's works for an understanding of the abstract art of Suprematism. We could see the progress of Picasso’s investigation into the language and the primary thing about painting, they gave Malevich and his Suprematist investigators a way forward at the death of figurat...
