Peter Wilkins

Clarke's Beach, Newfoundland

Valtari

Inspired by celebrated album covers, in this case Valtari by Sigur Rós, this is Wilkins’s endeavour to capture the colour and pictorial elements of the original album artwork. These elements are then digitally re-mixed and abstractly represented as circular artworks, celebrating the form of the record or disk and creating a new emblematic aesthetic of the original album cover.

At first glance the works are punchy, eye catching experiments in colour, yet they taunt the viewer with an undercurrent of recognition at work. These works aim to transform the visual impact of a great album cover in to a gentle time based visual reflection of the original record and celebrate the music it represents.
