About this artwork
Persistance
This series of work which by now consists of 13 relief sculptures is inspired by a friends call for artworks.
Found, often discarded materials intrigue me and I have been collecting this or that by it's sheer beauty of color for a long time. Has it been merely red in the beginning I have added other colors over time.
My boxes with stuff filled up to the brim and literaly asked me to get going with it to create a work.
The series… of work started in a rather playfull manner by adding, substracting, shifting, changing, the 'things' around.
The round, circular form has fascinated me. I have explored the square before in painting and have come to love the rectangular shape with no preference to the sides in form other than given by the color on the surface.
The same was true for me by using the round shape: there is no given top and bottom, no left and right, hanging at any angle it still looks straight and right.
