Miles Johnston’s art work looks a bit scary, the figure’s limbs are twisted, and even the entire body is hollowed out,he just wanted to use these dark paintings to show the distortions and deformations in life, so as to express the internal state of people, so that people can resonate emotionally with the paintings.Perhaps this is terrible because everyone is too used to seeing the good things on the surface, ignoring the corruption. But if you want to get real happiness, you may have to start with the basic things that are internally dead. The process may be as terrible as his paintings, but as long as you clenched your teeth and held it back, you will understand that growth is only such a thing, and at the same time, you can coexist with the distortions and emptiness of the world.
I think this can be my reference,my starting point is ‘evaluation’ ,for example ,as we grow, our appearance and mindset will change, and as we grow older, we are no longer as ‘naive’ as before,which means we always like to hide our emotions.Maybe I can use this idea to continue my work.
Also according to preliminary impressions of Miles’s work,I did some attempt.
