Description
A composition structured in three horizontal registers. The artist uses the knife here to build an architecture of matter. The oil paint accumulates in thick layers. These strata evoke slices of books lined up on shelves. The relief creates a play of shadows and light on the canvas.
The palette favors neutral and earthy tones. Touches of muted blue, deep red, and olive green punctuate the whole. These colored accents guide the eye through this geometric alignment. The repetition of vertical forms establishes a calm and ordered rhythm.
The knife work brings a sculptural dimension. Each area becomes a deposit of memory, a tangible trace of the artistic gesture. The abstraction transforms the familiar object into a space for reflection. The composition plays on the balance between structural rigor and the sensuality of the material.
This piece, made in 2026, is part of a research on the sedimentation of knowledge. The textured surface invites tactile and visual exploration. The whole ends with a discreet signature in the bottom right.
Possibility to request a black frame.
