Artist and Central Saint Martins graduate Nick Gentry creates recycled art with obsolete media storage as his medium. After assembling canvases by puzzling together floppy disks with all kinds of different data, he paints portraits of over them. “The floppy disk stands firm and lives on as a metaphor for the increasing pace of the modern life cycle, mass production and the throwaway culture of today.” I am truly obsessed with this and I will be recreating it when bored during upcoming winter misery.  The innovation as well as creativity that is streaming through artists today, I feel is more exciting than ever.  I have heard that through bad economies in the past that is when art has thrived, and I truly believe it.  I for one, am feeling more inspired lately than I have in years.
