Vinyl is his only medium which materializes all his influences, mainly pop art. Through a sharp look and precise detail, his mix of colors are not only audacious but elegant as well. His work demands handmade complex methods combined with traditional techniques and modern materials. The whole thing leads to a hyper-realistic pop art where real objects (vehicle parts) become surrealistic. One needs some time to fully comprehend the work.
"I think that immobile vehicles turn into reflective sculptures which give a unique deformed vision on our daily environment, a view of the exterior world. Using vinyls was also used in my 2D collections", says the artist.
Joel Clark works with high end brands like Turnbull & Asser, Selfridges and the Rolling Stones.
