Art is Perspective


The works of Wiley are certainly a foray into an alternative genre of art. Unlike most artists, who have a preferred style or era from which they like to draw technique and inspiration, Wiley uses a myriad of sources and places them in a unique "juxtaposition"with the subject. In this painting from his exposition in Brazil, Wiley duplicates the strokes of Surrealist Salvador Dali. He uses a unique perspective to alter the meaning of what is being there, often forming multiple meanings and images in one painting. This is an interesting way to attract attention on oneself as an artist. Original idea, new twist.
