New 'LIPS' Series in the works
In a burst of artistic creativity ZARUM has now engaged in composing a new series, conceptualized during a one week stay in Monaco in the fall of 2009, that promises to be no less special and exciting than the 'FACES' series. A first glimpse can already be enjoyed on his comprehensive and informative web-site, together with his other works.
Limiting the use of color to black, white and red, ZARUM has once more set a challenge for himself; namely that of creating magic with lines and shapes.
More refined and sophisticated, he will enrapture us with his typical wide swung lines, gently and elegantly dividing sharp contrasts, forming separate spheres that evolve into lips and other facial features, thus the name of this new series: 'LIPS'.
In this contraposition of cold logic and heated fervor we find ZARUMs main message. On the background of a black and white rationally calculable world, he places the soft but powerful symbol of emotion and sensuality in the form of red lush lips. The lips in their overwhelming size and impact tell us the importance of being aware of our desires and following our passions with pride, because life is simply colorless without them and they truly are larger then life.
