This is the digital remix of the painting by Dex Hannon 'I Clipped my own Wings and Fell Through the Earth.' Something Dex Hannon does as an artist is take the original painting, and examine the concept and decide; is there something else this work can say? Is the painting the end? If the answer is it has something more to say, the original painting is remixed, and a new artwork is born.
This work mirroring the artist's sense of discombobulation caused by this new place the NFT World, the Metaverse. These strange new lands and ideas to explore. The painting is broken up and adapted colours and brush strokes redirected and the spaces below become the spaces above and inbetween. This remix takes apart the original painting and adds in fellow Broken Toy creator, DJH Photography's macro work, merging nature with the digital realm. The Broken Toys have a strange obsession with insects and the small worlds beneath our feet. These little teasers of insects and sections of the natural world are there to remind us all to look for nature around us. While we still can.
