Crafting Art: The Enigmatic Complexity of Frail Gestures and Vulnerable Materials
When creating his art, the artist deliberately incorporates the use of frail and sometimes unpredictable movements and delicate materials, juxtaposing them with soft geometric shapes and lines. By showcasing the wall or a blank canvas as the “picture plane,” alongside elements or fragments that seem to exist in a temporary and scattered manner, the artist raises questions about our connection with the artwork as a whole. He symbolizes the absence of matter, whether it be the holes in the paper or the empty spaces between works, as if imbuing them with volume and an indescribable presence.
Through a minimalistic approach to painting and a deliberate restraint in his interventions, the artist directs our attention to the intricacies of his work, making us keenly aware of their structured and delicate nature. This manipulation of detail adds a layer of complexity and unpredictability to the art, causing the viewer to reassess their relationship with the image as they perceive it.
