Inside the cylinder

What if you would stand exactly inside the cylinder? Open from both sides. This painting invites you in the shape. How would it be, to be in there? An open invitation, with the transparency on both sides. At the same time it’s investigating the shape. Is it more about the lines or about the meeting point, which is leading the composition straight upwards?

An ongoing process

‘An ongoing process’, is about two shapes meeting and integrating. They merge and don’t stop, it is an ongoing process. Investigating the shape of the hart. In multiple ways. Literally the shape of the hart, never understanding why it originally always stopt in the middle. For me there was always more. And secondary our physical hart, where the deep blue and strong red meet in this ongoing circling process.

The meeting point of the ellipse

Where would the meeting point be? And what happens when you look at those meeting points, would it be a different painting? It’s about what you don’t see. Would the other side be mirrored? All questions to discover what you trulely see, beside it’s strongly spatial effect. Is it about it’s shape and how important is the composition when it’s a free shape? You can discover this painting all around ass well on the sides of the artwork.

Poppy red

For several years I was trying to catch the true poppy colour, what allmost seemed impossible. Just like the flower the glass is translucent. So you can get really close to the true poppy colour. Which was an experiment. They always comfort me during spring time (their powerfull, strong colour) when you find poppy everywhere around.
