Agyness Deyn (born Laura Hollins; 16 February 1983), is an English fashion model, actress and singer. Deyn has been hailed as "the fashion industry's next great supermodel".

Deyn is from Failsworth in the Metropolitan Borough of Oldham, Greater Manchester.[5][6] The daughter of a nurse, Lorraine, and second of three children she attended All Saints RC High School, as well as Bacup and Rawtenstall Grammar School and Sixth Form in Waterfoot, Rossendale.

Deyn's name was apparently coined to further her modelling career after she consulted her mother's friend, a numerology expert who advised her of the most 'fortuitous' way to spell the name 'Agnes'. It was reported that her mother Lorraine and sister Emily have both changed their surname to Deyn, while Lorraine has changed the I in her first name to Y.

Deyn's working life started serving part-time aged 13, at a fish and chip shop in Ramsbottom. Even at an early age she had an eye for style and by 17 she had already had her head shaved. "I’ve had short hair since I was 13, and when I was 17, I had a skinhead." In 1999, she won the Rossendale Free Press "Face of '99" competition, aged just 16. She then moved to London, working in a fast-food restaurant during the day and a bar at night but admits: "It didn’t quite work." During this time she says she was also at college in Hull, studying drama and music.

Wedha’s Pop Art Portrait di Era Industri Seni
Oleh Agus Dermawan T.
Kritikus, penulis buku-buku seni rupa.


small white                       Dalam sebuah diskusi di Taman Ismail Marzuki tahun 1981, pelukis dan penari Bagong Kussudiardja  mengatakan bahwa seorang seniman bisa dianggap besar apabila karyanya menghasilkan “isme”. Yang dimaksud “isme” adalah pemahaman yang diberangkatkan dari keyakinan wacana dan pemikiran. Sebuah “isme” biasanya akan melahirkan pengikut. Dan pengikut akan memunculkan sebuah aliran. Sedangkan sebuah aliran, pada waktunya akan melahirkan sejumlah keyakinan wacana dan pemikiran baru. Keyakinan wacana dan pemikiran baru ini akan menghasilkan sub isme, yang dikemudian hari mungkin akan jadi isme baru.

                       Fakta apa yang dikatakan Bagong Kussudiardja itu memang tercatat dalam sejarah. Affandi adalah pelukis besar, yang kemudian melahirkan Affandisme. Bahkan konon sebagian pelukis akan melewati gaya Affandi sebelum mereka menemukan gayanya sendiri. Begitu pula begitu pula Claude Monet dengan impresionismenya, Picasso dengan kubismenya, Salvador Dali dengan surealismenya, Yue Minjun dengan realisme sinisnya, Basoeki Abdullah dengan realisme romantiknya. Ahmad Sadai dengan abstrak dan abstraksinya. Atau Bagong sendiri dengan koreografi Nusantara-Martha (Graham)nya.

                       Lalu apabila Wedha dengan “pop art portrait”nya kini melahirkan isme, -sebut saja “Wedhaisme”- , apakah sudah waktunya perupa Wedha disebut seniman besar? Tentu kita tidak harus terburu-buru. Meskipun fakta telah menunjukkan bahwa gaya lukisan Wedha sejak dirilis lewat pameran tunggal pada 2008 silam telah melahirkan pengikut begitu banyak. Namun apabila istilah “besar” belum waktunya disandang, maka sebutan “populer” mungkin lebih tepat untuk dikenakan.

                      Keberhasilan Wedha ini cerminan dari upaya perupa kontemporer yang pandai memanfaatkan teknologi informasi modern untuk naik ke langit pembicaraan. Visual karya-karya Wedha yang apik, dengan tentu diimbuh presentasi wacana dan pemikiran, dan dibonusi teknik-teknik pembuatan, diperkenalkan di antaranya lewat FaceBook. Dasi sini kemudian lahir sekumpulan penggemar karya-karya Wedha, yang awalnya dibentuk dalam komunitas deviantart. Yang menarik, dalam komunitas ini Wedha secarta blak-blakan mengajarkan teknik pembuatan karyanya, sehingga bisa diikuti oleh siapa pun yang ingin bergabung dalam barisan Wedha’s Pop Art Portrait ( WPAP).

CREATOR COMMENTARY :
” ONE WAY OR ANOTHER… I LUV BLONDIE”

Deborah Ann "Debbie" Harry (born July 1, 1945), also referred to as Blondie, is an American singer-songwriter and actress, most famous for being the lead singer for the New Wave band Blondie. She has also had success as a solo artist,  and in the mid-1990s she performed and recorded as part of The Jazz Passengers. Her acting career spans over thirty film roles and numerous television appearances. She is reportedly worth $16 million.

Blondie


With her two-tone bleached-blonde hair, Harry quickly became a recognizable punk icon. Her look was further popularized by the band's early presence in the music video revolution of the era. She was a continued regular at Studio 54 and was associated with Andy Warhol. In June 1979, Blondie graced the cover of Rolling Stone. Harry's stage persona of cool sexuality and streetwise style became so closely associated with the group's name that many came to believe the singer's name to be "Blondie". The difference between the individual Harry and the band Blondie was famously highlighted with a "Blondie is a Group" button campaign by the band in 1979.[5] To complicate matters further, Harry sometimes described her character in the band as being named "Blondie", as in this quote from the No Exit tour book:

“ Hi, it's Deb. You know, when I woke up this morning I had a realization about myself. I was always Blondie. People always called me Blondie, ever since I was a little kid. What I realized is that at some point I became Dirty Harry. I couldn't be Blondie anymore, so I became Dirty Harry.”
