Description

This abstract composition plays on a radical contrast between darkness and clarity. 
Deep black dominates the canvas. It asserts itself through dense blocks and grainy textures. 
India ink structures the space. It creates areas of void and full space. 
Splashes of color emerge from the void. A solar yellow illuminates the left side. A nocturnal blue stretches across the right side. 
Acrylic brings a material dimension. The work on paper reveals plays of transparency and superposition. 
The gesture is free. It oscillates between technical precision and spontaneity. 
The visual balance arises from this chromatic tension. The light seems to struggle to pierce the dark material. 
This work was created in 195. It mixes the use of acrylic, India ink, and paper.
