Two paintings become a work of art.
"RE3" is an artwork that falls into the category of "Remnants of an Experiment." It consists of two pieces glued together."Organic Grounds"Paintings that undergo a "correction" by being cut away or covered over. They were thus revived as "remnants."
This large-format abstract painting was created using a mixed technique of acrylic, water-mixable oil paint, and varnish. However, the term 'painted' doesn't quite capture the method, as the colors were more thrown and splattered, resulting in a highly experimental outcome.
Many colors and textures.
The structural and color diversity in this artwork is impressive. The size of the color dots and strokes, as well as the variation in brightness, play a crucial role in spatial perception. The application and blending of colors were repeatedly interrupted during the painting process to control the spatial effect. The result is a natural variety in color and structure that engages the viewer in an unusual, abstract way. Particularly striking are the bright ochre, yellow, and white colors, which blend in a complex manner with smaller amounts of brown, blue, red, green, and orange to create spatial depth.
The brightness of the painting subtly changes from top to bottom. In the upper half, the colors are bright, pointillistic, and small, while in the lower half, they become somewhat darker, more linear, and larger. These variations give the impression of standing before a vibrant meadow or field.
Despite the plethora of colors and textures, "RE3" appears overall subtle and can be appreciated both from a distance and up close. The composition is minimalist and entirely based on experimenting with color application. In a modern living space, this large-format painting creates a contemporary atmosphere.
More Information:
