Using unique mediums isn’t anything new to us, and Emanuel Pavao has been using duct tape to create his art. Pavao uses it, along with electrical, masking and packing tapes, to create street scenes of urban areas that are both surreal and real at the same time.
“My interest in Tape Art was due in part to inspiration and the other part to frustration. I was inspired by the realist works of such artists as Chuck Close, Richard Estes, Alex Colville and Eric Zener; but I was also not satisfied working with the mediums of oil, acrylic and watercolors. The work that a few installation artists were doing with tape attracted me to it and I felt that there could be more to this medium as a fine art,” the artist said.
