The paint residues result in an abstract landscape painting.
The large-format abstract landscape painting measures 110 x 150 cm and consists of paint residues and binder. The paint residues used for this painting are colorful. Acrylic paints, oil paints, and paint residues interact with each other in a variety of colors, shapes, and sizes. The sizes of the paint residues range from very fine dust to paint chunks with a diameter of about 0.7 cm. It is the size differences of the paint residues that allow for a composition. Below are some key details about the painting.
Abstract art using paint residues as a stylistic device.
From a distance, the work initially appears to depict an earthy or sandy, wave-like surface. As you step closer to the painting, you realize that the work is completely colorful and consists of small paint residues. The wave structure is only created by a repetitive, line-like accumulation of larger paint chunks. The abstract art becomes concrete with increasing observation: thoughts of wind, water, sand, or a beach emerge.
A modern ambiance through subtly colorful haptics.
"Field of Mars CLVI" impresses most in a bright room. The unusual spatiality - the haptics (three-dimensional) combined with the contrasts (two-dimensional) - creates a very original and interesting ambiance that can only be gradually explored. The spatial effect is extremely subtle, so that a very fine, elegant, and stimulating effect emanates from this picture.
Modern art is not necessarily accessible to everyone. Nevertheless, the result of experimental painting can spark curiosity. Especially when the juxtaposition of old (paint residues) and new (painting), or the title "Field of Mars" (a place of political confrontation in ancient Rome) helps to evoke associations.
