Submission Painting

Vacuum

The question “When is the right time to stop with painting?” led to a development over several years in which the focus was on the reduction of the essential elements of the picture. The brain itself completes the spaces.

It takes courage to overcome your own “horror vacui” and leave a picture half-finished. This interplay between free gestural painting and finely painted elements fascinates me.

For me, it’s a symbol of our overstimulated time. It’s just not possible to perceive everything. You’re floating in a rapid flow of stress, work, information and consumption. I want to show this perception!
