Description
This artwork is a bold exploration of color field painting, dominated by a luminous expanse of vibrant yellow. The canvas is enveloped in a radiant glow, creating an immersive experience that invites the viewer to dive into its sunny depths. Surrounding the yellow are subtle hints of red, blue, and orange peeking from the edges, providing a striking contrast that energizes the composition. The soft blending of tones in the yellow expanse generates a sense of light and movement, imbuing the work with a dynamic yet serene quality. This piece challenges traditional form, allowing color itself to become the subject, evoking emotion through its sheer intensity and purity. It's a captivating embodiment of minimalism and abstraction, where simplicity meets profound visual impact.
This painting is the part of my "Borderline states" project.
This series dedicated to the analysis of emotional experiences and the construction of forms at the intersection of color psychology and sociology. Following in the footsteps of Bauhaus artists, Color field painters and abstract expressionists, I seek dynamic color combinations capable of influencing the emotional background.
The core of paintings focuses on a single, base color associated with the dominant emotion. The color at the borders of the paintings, on the stretchers (often not visible in frontal view of the painting), are the brightest fragments, done using reflexive paint, that cast light on the surface around the painting and seem to vibrate on the periphery of our vision, represents sup-pressed emotions arising as a reaction to events or actions, generating a psychological dominant and hidden in the subconscious but affecting us and our surroundings. Typically, these colors are opposite to the main color or are more vibrant. Fluorescent paints are used on color interaction lines to create contrast, increasing color saturation, and altering its properties when in contact with the eye's retina.
«Borderline States» imply movement from the center to the periphery and back, mastering the color space, comparing emotional background and color. I would like to achieve combinations and dynamics that directly and positively impact the articulation of emotional intelligence.
Presentation
Konstantin Danilov (b. 1979, Moscow) is a painter and muralist from Moscow, now live and work in Athens, Greece after he moved out from Russia in 2022. He was one of the pioneers of the burgeoning graffiti movement in 1990s Russia, and the experiences of working with color and shape in urban space still inform his work. Now, he associates himself with Color Field painting. He also makes prints, drawings, and digital editions.
Konstantin is currently working on different series of paintings. In one project titled "Borderline States," he explores the psycho-emotional state of concentration and the role of peripheral vision in interpreting different external emotional fields. Here he is interested in suppression and substitution of emotions, the relationship between border and center, and the function of unconscious memory.
The second project “Limits of Intervention" he explores the balance between nature and human influence through semi-abstract landscapes. It captures moments of minimal human intervention, revealing hidden beauty and fragile harmony. The works reflect the tension between nature's chaos and civilization's order, their mutual influence, and the mystery of their coexistence, inspiring reflection on the importance of respecting the natural world.
Another project – "Integration" – is devoted to the problem of human integration into a different society under the conditions of emigration. Through form and color, Konstantin presents a psychological color chart of the ability or inability to blend in and cooperate in new contexts.
All three projects are united by a single visual technique - painting on the ends of the paintings, which serves as a hidden layer of emotions displaced by the emotional background from the perception of the main image.
He has three solo exhibitions: "Flashbacks" at Triumph gallery in 2019, “Spring 2020" at the Fineart Gallery in 2020 and “Borderline states" in Reloft Art Gallery, All in Moscow, Russia. The notable group shows he participated in “Apologia for Delusions" at Moscow Museum of Modern art in Moscow, 2019, “Boundless space... the possibilities of Burning Man", group show and auction, Burning man Project and Sotheby's, New York in 2021, TRUE ЛИ, group show at RuArts Foundation, Moscow in 2022, “30 Year Anniversary" group show at Fineart gallery, Moscow in 2022.
His artworks are included in RuArts Foundation collection, Sofia Trotsenko collection, Montresso Foundation and STRAAT Museum in Amsterdam.
