About this artwork
Only the light things make for themselves.
Bathyal II is the moment of collision - where deep water meets the memory of surface, where pressure becomes eruption. Built in layers: acrylic ground, modeling paste mixed with phthalo blue applied wet, relief built until the canvas becomes wave.
40×60cm, 100% cotton canvas, Lefranc & Bourgeois Paris, 350g/m². Heavy impasto. Single session, unrepeatable.
Part of… the Bathyal series by M. Krause, Paris. No prints.

I work in acrylics on large-format canvas. Thick paint, raw pigment, sand, paste. Materials that resist, that hold the mark, that remember the gesture. The surface accumulates - it doesn’t illustrate.
The work began as a way to translate what couldn’t be spoken. Not therapy. Not documentation. Something more primitive than either - the body finding form before language arrives.
Based in Paris. Working in large and very large formats. Originals only.
