This exhibition I visited was in St James Valetta

Marie Louise Kold

Marie works with copper, brass and bronze, she uses chemicals to bring out the colours out of the metals.

This portrait is made out mosaic squares that are painted.  This is a mosaic of the eyes of her favourite author, Laren Bilxen. It is made out of thousands copper squares.  As you look at this piece of art you can almost think that it is a realistic photograph.

“Lines of Flight” 

This is the piece of art that gave the whole exhibition the name. This is an almost three dimensional patterning of lines that reflect the light to give dynamic projection of water and sky and the lines that wrap themselves around. 

I just love all the colours used and the texture it has. This is one of my favourites from Marie’s’ exhibition which inspired me a lot for my own art.

The Lone Nude.

The lone nude figure is painted on metal with some photographic details with oil paints, the lonely lady looks like she’s in a world of her own, surrounded with a gold background the nude lady stands out in this painting. This piece of art has alot of textures and its in 3D with a lot of metalic tones.

Metallic Book.

This an all metal book made out from copper. This is a pretty simple piece which I like because the simplicity makes it stand out. It looks like a mystery book, that when you open it amazing things will start happening but that’s just my imagination. I like all the textures in it and the colours that come out from the metal.

''Touch''

 These two pieces are amazing. They have lovely shades of blues and greens and different elements like copper, brass and a lot of textures. This pieces even has words from one of her poems.  As you look at this piece of art it’s like the colours are coming alive. It amazing how all these materials mix together so well.
