What is Resin Art ?

Resin art is a versatile and an unexplored art medium which is becoming a potential art practice in recent times. Being a versatile and durable material it allows artists to experiment with its unlimited possibilities and exceptional results. It is traditionally a thick and viscous and is generally used to manufacture varnishes and paints. However, a new kind of synthetic resin is created only for artistic purposes which are considered to be less harmful.  

Resin is a beautiful form of fluid which acts like a hardener when mixed with a medium called epoxy resin with colourful pigments to create products that become glass like solid after 12-24 hours. The method of creating an art piece with resin is a free flow or fluid like pouring, burning and glossing. It is usually poured down on the surface – the surface can be wood, canvas, ceramic or silicon. The natural fluidity helps create aesthetically beautiful textures, lines, shapes and patterns. The end result is a glossy artistic piece that can either be installed or hanged on the wall.

The newly explored concept is fun and experimental and highly commercial. Artists and designers are using the medium for its multipurpose utilization. A whole variety of things like wooden furniture, table tops, wall hangings, trays, coasters and much more are being created and used. Resin art is a booming art form in the world of art.
