Description

ATTENTION !!!
This is only a part of the whole quilt, so you have to take a look at the linked full-version!

Idyllical Overkill - two-man Quilt by Fidgit & Dura
(so i have to place particular emphasize on the fact that i paint only half of this image - so half of all credits goes to Fidgit, who isn't registered on this board)


Over half a year both of us worked together on this Projekt.

Easy System, you paint single tiles of the whole, the other gets only the borders, paint his own tile fit with those borders, and then he give his own borders back to the other, and so on.
On this website you can watch this system easily, or even take part on such a project by yourself(most quilt are for more than 2 people).
http://tiles.ice.org/index.php?quilt_id=163

In this case it has to mentioned, as a special treat this quilt is a tile by itself, so if you put it on your desktop "side by side" instead of streched or centred, there will be no border even on high resolution.

I love the concept of this peace. You both worked well with eachother. I really liked how each little square has a story of its own. The only critique that I migh offer is that, there is a slight difference in your painting styles and here and there the boarders can be easily seen rather then divided by the composition of the painting. But I must say it is far above and beyond what I could achieve by myself and look forward to seeing other works like it.

Nce detail, but I wish it was more integral. :) The detail indeed is overwhelming, so there's not much of composition to speak of, and the only way to look at it is looking at small individual parts. :) Maybe it could make a tapestry.

I like art that I can stare at for hours and still be intrigued by. I love the little music man in the upper left corner, and the moss-covered bridge.
I don't like the little fox thing. But that's all. This is gorgeous, and I'd love to have it covering a wall somewhere. Or a big poster. Full points.

@ very disturbing
Yes it is. So this is the typical negative side of a quilt you can hardly prevent ... so you don't really want to, because its what the fun is about - you do not start with an determinated whole picture, the picture is growing instead - everytime you'll be inspried by the other one and so on, so all this is like a chat in pictures, you get connected only by borders and try to communicate your ideas to come up with something you can present as "our".
You'll always recognize parts where the thoughts of both are different, but also you'll see they're worth to think about and answer.

@little fox (and things you dont really like)
@some visible borders and difference in painting style
Oh well, afterwards i don't really like a lot of parts in this quilt as those you see. But a quilt ends always as a compromise - as a discussion do. So you always try as best as you know, but both participants have their own experiences and your personal experience changes in time(this is as mentioned above painted over half a year), so sometiems its just this difference which makes this quilt as interesting as it is.
Like a biography of the true life - there are stories only life can tell, but life has not always a sense of perfection, because too much things react wich each other.

So the more different forces there are the harder it is to join them all together. So i think we did a well good compromise with two man in this one.
So there are still quilts with more than only 2 participants, where the communication is even worse ... and there are still pictures you paint all alone. Both is different, but interesting and worth a look. :)

Great idea for a project. Love the little yellow animal at the bottom (he's looking a bit lost! "What the hell happened to my home?";).

only one word to describe this artwork: Hypnotic
Amazing detail, this is one of these things that applies to the chaos theory =)
If you had some connection between the diffrent artworks so it had some really faint red thread I think it would be awesome. Now it tends to look like a few diffrent images in a single composition.

At first glance it's very overwhelming..but as I look closer at the details, it becomes beautiful and mind-boggling :)

Wicked detail! It is incredibly hard to look at considering my eyes want to follow a hundred million peices of the painting. Fun too look at ^^
