Winter Park Art Festival: Mixed-Media

Last weekend, we headed to the Winter Park Sidewalk Art Festival in Florida to get a taste of what some 225 artists from around the country had to offer. Within the next few weeks, we'll be blogging about the artists that blew us away. You'll be seeing artwork from a variety of mediums such as glass and ceramic pieces, photography, painting and mixed-media - which we are featuring this week from artists Will Corr and Rasa Pranckunaite.

Will Corr
"For over a decade, my work has been exploring the complex relationship between representation and abstraction. The motif-driven compositions, comprised of natural, social and historical iconography, serve as framework to investigate this interaction." -Will Corr

Rasa Pranckunaite

"My monochromatic photographs encompass everyday organic objects such as rocks, seeds, and stones. They are made strange and illusive by their enlargement and removal from their original contexts. Without any other illustration or symbolism, they evoke a multitude of associations spanning the ancient to the futuristic." - Rasa Pranckunaite
