Title
Consciousness of the Inanimate painting as a Spherical Depth Map. a
Artist
Paul Davenport
Medium
Painting - Oil Paint On Board And Digital
Description
There is some degree of irony in the fact that Chomsky's comment, which actually inspired the original painting I did, was in fact referring to our limits as humans to perceive things as they truly are - limits of perception etc - as I had no idea on completing the painting, that this 3d image was contained within it! (cool)
This 'Extraction' is a Spherical Depth Map of my 'Consciousness of the Inanimate' oil painting. Ive just started experimenting with Depth Maps and thought thought some of my paintings would produce some interesting effects. Any white plots as '0' and appears as the surface of the sphere, black is theoretically in the centre, and is cut away - everything else is tonaly plotted accordingly.
These Spherical Depth Maps of the 'Consciousness of the Inanimate' painting are all of the same model, viewed from different positions.
The original painting can be seen here

Now looking for suppliers that could print this out as a solid 3D object, which I would love to try.

Paul Davenport replied:
Hi VIVA - very happy you like them :-). Rather a peculiar thing to produce really - the 3D model was really making my computer creak! Then I spent ages trying different ways of presenting them, as it's rather nice to see them together with the original paintings as you can see where the shapes came from.... I had them floating over the paintings at one point with a drop shadow, but its confusing without fading the paintings... so decided to just present them as they are... which I find rather unusual :-)

Thank you Marcia... the most time consuming thing was lighting it, then rotating it into something funky! :-)
