    The document provides an analysis of the artwork "The Bleeder" by Walter Oltman. It discusses the artwork through four frames: subjective, structural, cultural, and postmodern. The subjective frame explores the feelings evoked by the artwork, from initial familiarity to later vulnerability. The structural frame examines the materials and methods used, such as woven wire and ink on canvas. The cultural frame discusses the African influences on Oltman's work. Finally, the postmodern frame positions the artwork as pioneering for combining modern techniques in a unique way to create detailed works that would inspire others.

    +anatomical illustration
     Sculptural forms are made additively by weaving anodised aluminium and brass wire into
    intricately patternated surfaces. This obsessive additive approach is mirrored in two
    dimensions in works like Bleeder (13 October – 3 November) where exquisite ink
    matrixes are composed to build up an arterial image of the human body.

    Structural Frame
    Instead of making a 3d object,
    Structural Frame
    Walter choose to wire it on canvas and paper
    combine using ink and pencil
    ● Method: Fabricating woven wire

    ● Colour: Red

    ● Material: Canvas, sculpture


    combine with sketching
    Cultural Frame
    The influence of African
    traditional art combination

    ● Target audience: All people in the Walter Oltman is expose to African traditional craft
    world. He want to show that every since he is youth,
    people is similar to each other in
    some way and despite out unique His work is either
    physique and appearance + pencil + ink + bleach
    ● + But we bleed the same way, and + sculpture using wire work which is heavily
    also have an elegance body that we inspire by the African traditional craft
    should embrace it
    Post Modern Frame
    ● E.g.

    Post Modern Frame


    ● Vs Mainstream: It is new a using a
    modern technique which is just introduce
    in 20th century and the artist also add
    something of his own to make it
    uniqueness.

    ● Personally I think it a pioneer since it the


    artist is elegantly using the new introduce
    technique and combine with something to
    make such an detail artwork which inspire
    multiple artwork after 2010.
