Abstract Art Created Through Inkjet Printer

Inkjet printers have always been popular when it comes to producing lab-quality digital photos stored in our personal computers and laptops but one artist was able to use it in creating a work of art. Campbell Laird, an award-winning modern contemporary artist based on Venice, created his piece by using a single vector shape which is printed multiple times at the same sheet of paper, resulting into a thousand swirls of lines and curves with different colors overlapping each other.


"I have very little idea of how the art will turn out," Laird explains. "It just grows organically with each new pass." According to TheVerge.com, "Each piece represents 5-7 hours of work, and as Laird notes, the process can take its toll on your printer — in his case that means "thousands of dollars of damage." The price we pay for art."


Who knows, perhaps through Laird's piece, artists may perceive modern inkjet printers as a new medium for their paintings? As how Nial McClelland, a Toronto-based artist, used leaked inkjet cartridges to create his series of artworks titled "The Stains", all of which were presented through various Art Exhibitions around Canada.

Beside from The Stains, McClelland also created an abstract painting titled "The Tapestries" wherein he covered a copier toner with a distinct paper and folded it methodically to result intricate patterns.


With such astonishing artworks, who knows what others can do using our modern inkjet printers which we often take for granted. But of course, to produce high-quality printouts, you must make sure that your inkjet printer is all set and uses quality replacement inkjet cartridges.
