Original artwork description:

Untitled
mixed media on canvas
40X50X2 cm.

Protected with a thin coat of varnish.
Unframed.
Signed on the back.
The canvas features painted edges, allowing it to be displayed without a frame.

This work is inspired by a strong geological component. The painting feels like a cross-section of rock or a slab of metal extracted from the earth. I want to get close to a connection to primordial nature, stripped of recognizable forms to focus solely on the pure energy of matter and color.

It is not a "cheerful" painting, but it is profoundly "alive": that central strip of heat prevents the work from becoming bleak, transforming it into a reflection on the light found within the cracks of things.

Materials used:

acrylic paint, spray paint, gesso, sand on canvas
