Whether you are a young man just graduating from college or in your mid-30′s and buying your first house, decorating the home can make a huge difference in its perception. Most younger adults, especially guys, do not worry about aesthetics and are merely looking to put their head down somewhere. When they finally do have people over, everyone wants to know why the walls are all so white. Using abstract wall art can make quite the impression.
The style of decor in a home tells visitors a lot about their host. Someone who keeps a nice place with matching decor is probably organized and likes to keep their life moving forward. Walk into a home that has nothing on the walls and people will think that they are misguided and just do not care about anything in general. To say that they are walking to the beat of their own drum is an understatement.
One of the beauties of abstract metal wall art is how modern it looks and the statement that it makes. Each piece is custom made and can literally mean a hundred different things to a hundred different people. The inspiration could have evoked a certain feeling in the author and a field of daisy’s may have turned into brown metal with a field of yellow and white intertwined in an intricate pattern.
This type of art really has no limitations. While other artists struggle to duplicate a live model or some type of object that they have set up to paint, an abstract artist merely uses these items as inspiration and then lets their mind take over from there. The work of art that is created generally looks very little like the inspiration that drove them to create it.
An added benefit of metal art is that it will not break the bank to get it up on your walls. Even with each piece being custom made, they are extremely affordable compared to other styles of art. Tim Herbst has a piece called Water that is the very essence of this. It is a silver framed piece that has a black rectangle featuring both green and an orange/red figure. The entire thing is swimming in a field of blue.
It is a piece that immediately made me think of a fishing boat that had capsized in the middle of the ocean. The blue was obviously the water, but the orange/red made me think of the survivor suits that a fisherman has to wear when they are in trouble and forced into the ocean. The green represented the air is his lungs and the black was death waiting for him. It is unlikely that the first ten people you ask would get the same impression.
Abstract wall art may be the most thought provoking art to ever grace a wall. Nobody really knows what the artist was thinking when they created it and that leaves it up to our imagination to figure it out. It could mean one thing to you one day and something else the next. One thing for sure, nobody will ever call your walls plain again if you have one of these creations hanging on it.
