A Deeper Look Into the Art

William Ivany;
(°1996, Waterloo,ON, Canada) Abstract paintings, mixed media artworks.

I was born and raised in west galt. I had lived there my entire life up until November of 2017. I Started creating art back when I was only 10 or 11 years old using photoshop to mash up a bunch of my favorite things. I had then grew on this skill to the point where I was freelancing during the summers. I have been painting since September 2014. I had taken a formal class in College, and once I made that first abstract; I was hooked.

My paintings are based on inspiring situations: visions that reflect a sensation of indisputability and serene contemplation, combined with subtle details of odd or eccentric, humoristic elements. By applying abstraction, I create intense personal moments by means of Colour and Design, luring the viewer round and round in circles.

By creating situations and breaking the passivity of the spectator, I want the viewer to become part of the art as a kind of added component. Art is entertainment: to be able to touch the work, as well as to interact with the work is important.

My work never shows the complete structure. This results in the fact that the viewer can easily imagine their own interpretation without it being hindered. By examining the ambiguity and origination via retakes and variations, I try to increase the dynamic between audience and author by objectifying emotions and investigating the duality that develops through different interpretations.
