MiLo - Residual Notations - XXL
“Residual Notations” captures the silent persistence of marks — traces that remain after meaning has washed away.
Across its pale, time-worn washed surface, faint lines, grids, and symbols emerge and dissolve, evoking the remnants of diagrams, blueprints, or untranslatable scripts.
The result feels like a recovered fragment — an abstract archaeology of gesture and memory.
MiLo’s process combines layering, scraping, and reduction,
revealing the tension between control and decay that defines his recent work.
Each mark seems at once intentional and accidental,
as if drawn from a system of thought whose logic has long since faded.
The painting can be hung in any orientation.
It will be shipped rolled in a sturdy tube, without frame, and includes a signed certificate of authenticity.

About the artist
MiLo (1976) is an Amsterdam-based artist with a background in photography and art studies.
Over the years he has sold more than 800 original works, now residing in private collections, hotels, restaurants, and offices across Europe, the United States, Hong Kong, and Taiwan.
His practice spans from early Pollock-inspired action paintings to precise geometric compositions,
and to the layered, scratched surfaces he often explores today.
In his current work, MiLo investigates the tension between construction and erosion,
layering and scraping the painted surface until traces emerge.
These may recall urban structures, geological strata, or remnants of thought — yet the imagery is never fixed.
Each canvas evolves through process and chance, allowing multiple interpretations to surface beyond any single theme.
Each work forms part of an ongoing exploration of abstraction, memory, and transformation,
making MiLo one of the most prolific and recognizable contemporary artists on Catawiki.
