Hi All! Happy Hump Day!
Another
great introduction to share! -- Introducing ** ART MEDIA ~ BEST OF 2013 NEOCON GOLD ENTRY FOR CARPET- MODULAR TILE
INSPIRATION |
ART MEDIA is a library of patterns reinterpreting iconoclastic modern art techniques and media: Charcoal, Chalk, Graphite, Action Painting, Drip Painting, and the optical illusions of Op Art.
Designed by Cresta Bledsoe, ART MEDIA consists of six patterns that offer a variety of quintessential modern art aesthetics in a range of scales that are completely versatile from large focal point installation art to neutral and planar textural ground. The optional Canvas edge details can act as a border or transition.

CHARCOAL | Soft, but
boldly gritty, Charcoal is non-directional line work on a static ground that
features a subtle striae in the background. The striae is smears from the
charcoal itself, giving this design a slightly superior wear-ability compared
to a complete solid. Charcoal is the largest scale pattern and the only
precision set ‘medallion’ pattern repeat in the collection. Charcoal is a
4-tile precision set, ‘medallion’ pattern repeat that perfectly achieves drama
for large scale spaces and small feature areas.
CHALK > Chalk is a
medium-scale, rhythmic, continuous-flowing line made up of three linear layers
of varying thickness, line weight, and smudges, delivering a
scrawled-on-chalkboard effect. Chalk is a 9 random multi-tile repeat.
GRAPHITE > A small scale
pseudo-linear rhythmic pattern made up of 3 layers of varying thickness, line
weight, and smudges, having a scrawled on chalkboard effect. Graphite is a 6
random multi-tile repeat.
ACTION PAINTING > A large scale
dramatic and gestural pattern, Action Painting refers to the use of the whole
body to paint – not just a hand and brush. These paintings are created by
moving around a large canvas on the ground and spattering painting from all
sides to create a non-directional, but animated paint texture. The Action
Painting pattern is bold and while there are a couple of neutral color ways,
most are multi-color in approach. Action Painting is a 4 random
multi-tile repeat. ** Faded canvas edge shown here!
DRIP
PAINTING >
The smaller scale of the two, Drip Painting is an abstract art in which the
paint is dripped onto the canvas using unconventional tools such as sticks or
hardened brushes. This technique creates a unified overall pattern that allows
the eye to travel across the whole canvas – or floor plane in this instance.
All-over line and drip texture allows for no positive or negative space where
there is no figure or ground. Drip Painting is a 4 random pattern with no
pattern repeat- every tile is unique.
OP
ART >
Op Art was a modern art movement influencing major trends such as Bauhaus and
the DeStijl movement, but hit iconoclastic status in the mid-century. It
focuses on illusion or optical tricks. Here, we have used precise line work to
draw-in the viewer and also expand with a modern iconic starburst that
perfectly utilizes the modular tile format. The pattern occurs from the tile
corners with seams becoming part of the pattern, and therefore camouflaged.
Additionally, the centers of the tiles are unique to create a very large scale
random super graphic. This can be bold or a very subtle, near solid, depending
on color way. Op Art is a 9 random multi-tile repeat.
**
Additionally, as an optional accessory or trim tile, we offer canvas left or
canvas right patterns on CHARCOAL, CHALK, GRAPHITE, ACTION & DRIP PAINTING.
These tiles feature the perimeter of the artwork where the pattern fades to the
canvas edge. This creates opportunities to define circulation, create a ‘white
space’ edge to transition to other modular flooring, or as edge detail to
transition to hard surface floor. The pattern consists of a companion right or
left version tile, for all 4 of the tiles. These canvas edge tiles are to be
installed precisely paired with their corresponding tile. ** Shown on
Action Painting above.
