Cosmoonaut Stencil Art by Jason Trotter (Canada)
Wednesday, May 05, 2010
Stencil artist, Jason Trotter, sent us images of his recently completed Cosmoonaut art piece. The image was stenciled
onto an 8 1/2 x 11 sheet of Garnet 60-grit sandpaper. The unique
application of black ink over the speckled, grainy surface of the sandpaper is very
effective. He's hoping to transfer the same image, only much larger, onto
a brick wall someday soon.
Jason has been producing large
format stencils for the past decade. He draws his inspiration from
other contemporary stencil artists such as Banksy and Shepard Fairey.
He recently completed a number of commission pieces for the
municipality of Lethbridge. The pieces were stenciled on expanded metal
sheets and were installed on the sides of historic buildings. The
subject matter for his pieces ranges from historic iconic images to
more contemporary images such as Lucha Libre.
His latest stencil
project, large-scale postage stamp forms on wood, is currently on
display at the Penny Coffee House gallery in downtown Lethbridge.
