Artist Statement
Polymer coating, silk and oil on canvas. The canvas is stretched on a wooden frame and artwork is ready to hang. Framing is not required.
This artwork was created using fine Kremer pigments and hand-stretched canvas (of 380 g quality). A thin layer of varnish protects the artwork against UV light and dust. The artwork is signed on the back and accompanied with a certificate of authenticity.
NOTE: The images in context are not necessarily to scale and are for display purposes only.
About my work: "My way of working has become more meticulous through constantly adding or applying new materials like silk fibres or testing new techniques to push my process to its limits. This continuous experimentation is a key element to my new works. My objective is to develop my work to a new level, to strive for a new vision and an echo of life as I experience it."
