Original artwork description:

THIS ARTWORK IS PART OF A CURRENT EXHIBITION AND CAN BE RESERVED FOR ACQUISITION IN NOVEMBER

This is a multilayered abstract painting created through a slow, process-based approach that combines natural materials, physical gesture, and painterly experimentation.

The work began with the direct application of real grapevine leaves onto the surface, which were later removed — leaving behind delicate traces and organic silhouettes. Sand, a piece of rope, and layers of acrylic paint were then added over several sessions, using techniques such as action painting, water spray to dissolve edges, color glazes, and paper stamping to build a tactile, living surface.

The final result is a poetic landscape of residue — a visual memory of growth and decay. The greens, violets, and earthy tones echo a vineyard seen not with the eyes, but felt through time and transformation.

This piece speaks of presence and disappearance, of what nature leaves behind when it vanishes.

PLEASE NOTE: If not otherwise requested, this painting will be shipped stretched and ready to hang. Due to its size, this painting is suitable to be shipped rolled in a tube, along with the bars for the stretcher frame. When it arrives, you will need to assemble the frame and stretch the canvas. This is best done by a local gallery or framer. Shipping rolled in a tube can work out significantly cheaper for deliveries outside the EU. Just send me a message if this option fits you best.
