About The Artwork

Highlights the effects of Global Warming on the Bee population through the games of Word Search and the television game show 'Blockbusters' (UK & US version). The title refers to the word Trypophobia (which is a phobia of holes, eg in holes in sponges, or in particular, holes in the honeycomb of bee hives. The Artist has split these up into manageable syllables of Try Pop & Phobia, Pop refers to the Pop Art movement). The artwork is an aerial view (as the view of Bees) of the outside of a Bee Hive highlighted in Blue, with a hornet in Blue, and the inside in Yellow/Orange of the hexagon honeycombs of the Bee Hive, with the Bees defending their Hive, by building a Wall of linking hexagons. The hexagons with text are similar to that used in the game show Blockbusters (see last image). Global warming is increasing the global temperature and the Asian & European Hornets are migrating to warming climates, from Asia across Europe and more recently onto United Kingdom, where they are destroying our Bee population. This work is a piece of Conceptual Art. The work follows a sequence of repetitive hexagons that is repeated, it contains text, inspired by the previous work 'Help FOTE Save Beez!!' (typically four letter words split into two letters syllables and linked together, and have been inspired by Friends of the Earth publications, 20 things you need to know about bees, Iconic Bees -12 UK bee species, Great British Bee Count etc.), the same colours of Pop Art (these are standard colours that come pre-installed within Illustrator and have not been modified by the Artist).

UK-based Vinci Art is a Conceptual Artist and Post Pop Artist best known for his abstract use of repetitive vertical, horizontal and diagonal lines superimposed with four-letter words forming a playable word search “The idea or concept [Conceptual Art] is the most important aspect of the work, and I use any medium [painting, digital, printmaking or sculpture] to convey the idea to the piece of Fine Art” The Artist is interested in the interaction between opposites, yin & yang, war & peace, love & hate, rich & poor, and life & death. The Artist juxtaposes these contrasts with the innocent of Toys and Games used in our youth. His most recent body of work Style Series is influenced by De Stijl after Piet Mondrian [1872-1944]. De Stijl is Dutch for "The Style", also known as Neoplasticism was a Dutch art movement. De Stijl advocated pure abstraction and universality by a reduction to the essentials of form and colour; they simplified visual compositions to vertical and horizontal, using only black, white, and primary colours. His previous body of work includes the "Berry Series" influenced by textiles and cloth of “Plaid” or tartan one of the most widely used patterns in history. The work used a combination of vertical stripes and horizontal stripes with transparency to the underlayer. The stripes follow a sequence or order from dark to light, known as Conceptual Art The previous body of work includes "Flags of the World" which communicates with viewers through linguistics, semiotics, and cryptography. The series includes English, French, Italian, Spanish, German, and American Flags superimposed with four-letter words of their respective language forming a playable word search from A to Z. His previous works include, "Retro Celebrity Stars", which is a homage to celebrities of our past from the films of the Hollywood Golden Era, to the present day. Every one of these individuals helped create the world we live in today, and though we know their names, their actual images might be fading from our memory. "Disasters of War", is a homage to Heroes and Villains from World War I & II, by the use of humorous and tongue-in-cheek language to explore the more serious issues of the past to the present day. Heroes and Villains are portrayed in life, death, and immortality by the use of toys of our innocent youth. The toys are used as a satirical look at the “Disasters of Wars” revealing shock and truths of war and violence in a playful way.
