A Fusion of Tradition and Urban Elements

Aleksandar Bunčić,Aleksandar Bunčić - Abstracts and Cityscapes in NYC Art Show Articles a Serbian artist, believes that "artists must evolve with the times." His work is a unique blend of classic oil painting techniques and modern graffiti, emphasizing the connection between traditional and urban elements. Bunčić's creative process involves layering acrylics and oils on canvas, followed by scratching or layering spray paint to achieve the desired graphic effects.

Inspirations and Techniques

Bunčić draws inspiration from abandoned buildings, bridges, stadiums, and the geometric patterns of crystals. His work explores themes of vulnerability, breaking points, and the creation of new forms. His pieces are characterized by crisp, clean lines or curvilinear patterns, ranging from urban cityscapes to geometric abstractions. "I aimed to echo reality," says Bunčić of his earlier work, "whereas now I feel the need to deconstruct it." He achieves this by exploring the energy and clarity present in industrial structures. Triangles are a key shape in his constructions, where straight lines, geometric angles, and flat expanses work together like the interlocking shapes of a puzzle.
