Creating Extraordinary Artworks with Vintage Typewriters
Original Artwork: Collaboration with Robbie Williams | Elon’s Musk
Robbie, who not only creates artwork, but also uses typewriters in his own work, partnered up with James to create two type-written pieces. This Routemaster piece measures 29.7cm x 21cm (A4) however the frame and window mount bring the outer dimensions to 45cm x 37cm.
Each original artwork is appended with a certificate of authenticity. Robbie’s Elon’s Musk painting made me think of the fresh and stinky scent of our digital age. Typewriter art is raw and screen-less and I like the idea that some technologies never die.
Here is Robbie’s message from the project: “My algorithm blesses me sometimes. And this particular time it blessed me with James’s wonderful art.’’How the f*c* does he do that, this is brilliant? I thought.
Then I thought ‘’Wonder if he’ll do a collab’’ So I called him up. I usually hate phone calls, they give me anxiety but not only is James a magician when it comes to art he’s also incredibly easy to chat too.
This is our collab and im looking forward to further chats and further Art-ing.
