Oblivion 100 x 100 x 1.6 cm

Description

It is with a quasi-photographic rendering that I expressed the notion of erasure, disappearance, oblivion. The colors can only be summed up in brown accompanied by blue and only a form in the distance seems to emerge from the horizon as a last witness of a consciousness having sunk into nothingness. The result is an aseptic atmosphere reminiscent of the poles, where life is reduced to its minimum in icy silence. I chose oil paint to answer the technical problem that resulted from this pictorial choice, I had to remove all traces of brush in favor of perfectly smooth fondues. So, I used a large soft bristle brush while working with thin layers of material to better control the fusion of colors towards white.
