Adrienn Krahl

Adrienn Krahl's paintings express a deep sense of drama and emotional weight. Krahl works with different mediums, including acrylic, charcoal and ink, blending the spontaneity of painting with an architectural approach to structure. The mastery with which she allows each medium to express its unique properties gives the impression that different psychological forces are at work in the composition. Although his compositions are completely abstract, the complex and distressing tangles of lines, color fields and shapes suggest that a story is being told. Attention to detail gives way to an embrace of chaos as different mediums move back and forth, paint flows carelessly across the surface, and asymmetry gives way to balance. Born in Budapest, Hungary, Krahl studied art and design history in London. He currently lives and works in Taipei, Taiwan.
