Noma Bar



I find these pieces by Noma Bar particularly successful because of their simplicity but complexity at the same time. Using a few shapes he has managed to create an image which when looked at one way can portray one object but when looked at in a different way can also been seen as another. He has managed to make complex designs appear effortless, clean and crisp which I think has been achieved mainly through the colour palette. The limited colours he has used gives the shapes a bold outline which is also emphasised by the lack of detail. Personally, I find it exciting to look at his work and discover what different objects he has managed to combine together. It makes me want to spend more time looking at his work to see what is hidden inside each piece. Because it is so subtle, you must look at his work in a way you may not look at other artists' work, considering how the positive and negative shapes could be different objects. Overall, I think his work has been well thought out to engage the viewer into his pieces.
