Campbell La Pun was born in New Zealand, grew up in Melbourne but now resides in Tokyo, where eastern and western cultures collide. It is this energy and excitement which fuels his work, which he creates with stencils and spray paints on wood and canvas.<\/h5>\n<figure id=\"attachment_809590\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-809590\" style=\"width: 660px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-809590\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Tanks-Tom-Ate-Toe-Ann-Sell-Army-Girl-LR-e1463591825991.jpg\" alt=\"Campbell La Pun: 'Tanks Tom Ate Toe Ann Sell Army Girl', Aerosol on Wood Panel, 72.8 x 103cm, 2014\" width=\"660\" height=\"943\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-809590\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Campbell La Pun: &#8216;Tanks Tom Ate Toe Ann Sell Army Girl&#8217;, Aerosol on Wood Panel, 72.8 x 103cm, 2014<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><em>Lisa: How would you describe your 2-dimensional work?<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Campbell: I call it stencil pop art, most works I paint on wood panels using stencils cut by hand and painted using spray paint.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>Lisa: Much like Andy Warhol&#8217;s Soup Cans, you often repeat a motif (in your case the spray can) with the effect of iconicizing it.
