Peter Seminck Peter Seminck (Antwerp 1958). Life is all around us. Many see it, some even understand it but only a few try to put it in to images, called art by some and Art with capital A by others. Unfortunately too many people feel compelled to talk about it, explain it and even garde it. They don’’t seem to understand that Art is like wine; you like it or not, whatever the year of make or signature. Passion does not need a label. peterseminck.com Secretary Day, 2012. Oil on canvas, 100 cm by 70 cm.
Tracey Snelling My work derives from voyeurism, film noir, and geographical and architectural location. Within this idea of location, themes develop around a particular locale’s inhabitants: Who are these people? What do they do and why do they do it? These questions transport observation into the realm of storytelling, wherein I create new realities that change with the viewer’s perception. Through video, sound, and manipulation of size, I am not trying to replicate a place; rather I give my impression of a place, its people and their experience, and allow the viewer to extrapolate his or her own meaning. traceysnelling.com
