Description
Part of the "Mindscapes" series, "Forest Secrets" by J. Kesin envelops viewers in the intricate and mysterious beauty of an abstract forest. The organic forms, natural hues, and the dynamic movement from right to left suggest a journey through a complex landscape. The layered composition and interplay of light and shadow create a sense of depth and tension, hinting at a profound, transformative experience. This painting invites viewers to explore its rich, multifaceted environment, reflecting both the complexity of nature and the human experience. It was shown as part of the exhibition 'Surface Tension' in Valencia in 2023, and in Cadiz in April 2024.
Presentation
Working primarily with oil and acrylic, J. Kesin creates paintings of his perception of different subjects. These range from autobiography, literature, general concepts, politics and current affairs.
The subjects of his paintings are often deconstructed into "components", which are then represented on the canvas by layers, playing and creating a play of shapes, lines, opacity and transparency. Analysis, emotion and spontaneity combine in a process of constant conversation with the evolving painting.
His artistic influences include the ideas of simultaneity, cubism and constructivism, as well as the associative abstraction of Gerhard Richter and Howard Hodgkin.
Kesin was born in Hamburg, Germany, where he lived until 1999. During the 1990s he also spent extended periods in Russia and Uzbekistan, following the breakup of the Soviet Union, which added to his experiences and inspirations.
He is now based in London and Valencia.
