SCRIPT
preparing
for Hybrid Art Fair 25 26 27 feb. 2022
a project in
a Hotelroom
Each colour of paint on the brush gets its own
role on the canvas.
I see the canvas as a stage and bathed in white
light.
The players appear one by one. Each colour
choice,
brush type and carrier causes its own appearance
and adhesion.
At the pinnacle of intuition and concentration,
an act comes about one stroke of paint,
or several. An image appears. I intervene or
continue.
Sometimes there is an overlap. A duet. Sometimes
it is a continuous movement; a dance.
There are notes, clues.
An idea caused by painting does intuitively
associate during and afterwards.
Everything ever seen, read, experienced is blend
by memory,
divided, changed and then then presented as a
thought seeking guidance.
Titles run in and out. Keys are thrown at my
feet.
I don't always pick them up. Do not immediately
recognize where they fit.
Here comes no.1 is a duet. Nos 2 3 4 and 5 all
look like portraits of actors that could hang in a gallery in the foyer of a
theatre.
Or are they movie stills?
Some paintings can be hung 1 to 3 times rotated
and then show themselves in other guises.
Together it becomes after a change to a
different story.
The audience can compose the story individually
or collectively.
Sometimes the paintings are made for a location
and the carriers are adapted accordingly.
I have been using Stucloper
(coated white carton) since 2020 because,
in addition to being flat,
it can also wave spatially and as a material it
was also originally used for protecting purposes wich
gives another layer of meaning.
The location, audience, the work and I become
part of different contexts and thus different interpretations.
A performance can contain an invitation to
actively participate in a work of art.
I am curious how the work will be read.

Before
Voting I finished this painting. Or at least I think so.
I voted,
that’s a fact, I think the painting is finished, I am not Shure if that is
true.
At least I
am glad I could do both in one day.

About the
process:
As in nature
everything and everyone takes its opportunity to shine.
When the
light is right and the warmth comes in, the brush strokes with intuitive chosen
color find their way.
Next fase:
I finished(for now) this one with
a top layer of writing gestures, from the left going down, to the right. This
painting comes from far and didn't survive in a way that all the layers still
exist. Like a snake it shed its layered skin off in 2017.
There is a story to tell. A kind
of asemic writing pops up in my mind. The writing
gestures and colours are thought out considering the existing colours and
texture.
The consequence of this
intervention in this period of my painting process, is that i
have the choice to keep the painting in this kind of overall abstract state or i give with a minimum of clues the possibility to open
up for more pareidolia.
In my mind a lot of figures
appear. Two figures my mind comes up with,
I worked on them a bit more in there
direction.
Donald Duck and an eye.
