Recycled for Art’s Sake
Nick Gentry is a British born artist, working in London, who uses obsolete technology as his artistic medium. Whereas the concept of recycling objects to make new art (Picasso, Rauschenberg, Schnabel) is not new, I like Gentry’s fresh approach. By using the various floppy disks and cassettes as his canvas on which he paints, he creates a mosaic feel.
Some of his pieces even seem to be a nod to the grid work structures used by the modern painter Chuck Close.
