Shay Kun is an Israeli artist, notable for his vibrant, fuzzy paintings that deal with memory and perception. Kun usually portrays familiar environments, such as rain droplets falling down a window car or hand carved hot air balloon toys. These settings aim to explore the idea of nostalgia and how the memory fades away, leaving behind distorted and surreal recalls. Kun’s artistic voice lies between the historical concept of fine art and the contemporary deconstruction of digital and electronic imagery.
Stripper is part of his recent Joke series, where he borrows a chapter from Richard Prince's trivial joke paintings and adds a more pictorial and animated gestural quality. The combination of whimsical figuration, escapism and fantasy will make these inane images transform into something desirable and divine. Shay Kun is an emerging artist, attracting the interest of new buyers and collectors all over the world.
