Kidrobot

My immediate response to Kidrobot art is the smoothness of the piece and the urban culture style. All of his work shows geometric-like objects, mostly circular shapes. His art is ironic because of this toy made of plastic collaborates with background urban culture, which is not the typical toy for a child. Like the speaker head figure has this smooth modern look to it and the colors of it are so bold. The smoothness of this art isn’t just the texture of it but also the whole symbol of it too. It’s sarcastic that that the city life mood is always to be cool and smooth with their style and kidrobot has captured this mood in his artwork.
Kidrobot toys have a smooth texture to them. They also have this pop art color to them, bright neon-like; some are glow in the dark. The speaker head toy has a hip-hop look and feel to it. It’s giving off an impression of a music culture, such as rap and hip-hop. These pieces of art are defiantly not a toy you would buy for your little sister, especially if it represents hip-hop music and unacceptable clothing. This art has captured the humor of teen and adult life.
This piece of art has a concept; it’s obvious the viewer can notice the urban background they encounter. There is an underground grudge feeling to it with graffiti and drugs. The texture of kidrobot is very smooth plastic, the shape has a roundness which shows a off a smooth concept. The colors are chromatic and symbolic. They are chromatic because kidrobot uses so many hues together which are always bright, the bright colors are to catch your eye. The colors are symbolic since it reflects graffiti art and urban color. Graffiti artists tend to use neon-like colors and candy colors; hot pink, lime green. All the colors are bold primary and complimentary.
The story it tells is the aura of city environment. This speaker head figure symbolizes hip-hop art and culture. This figure is standing in a simple position with its hands in its pockets of the jacket just bobbing his speaker head to the music. Just like a rapper with headphones on dancing his head all around to the beats. His cloths tell an urban, city story, his jacket is below his knees looking like a gangster.
