Description from the seller
“Ignis” (2025)
Oil on canvas
170 x 140 cm
A red field becomes the foundation here, its complex surface providing dramatic backdrop for bold near-black marks applied on top. These dark strokes and splashes cut across the red with precision and force, creating stark contrast against the intense background. The combination feels urgent - controlled chaos over considered preparation.
Represented by S-Gallery and listed on Catawiki, this piece operates through opposition. The red background carries all that surface complexity and visible brushwork, while the dark marks on top appear more direct and decisive. Where the red field took time to build and work, these dark elements feel immediate and committed.
The large format gives both elements room to establish their own presence before the eye reconciles them into a unified composition. Those near-black marks seem to float above the red field, their sharp edges and splattered endings creating movement across the worked surface beneath.
Shipping:
The work is delivered without a frame (professional packaging, rolled in a tube). it can easily be restretched by a professional or on your own, this is also cheaper then the otherwise increased cost of shipping when sending paintings of this size stretched
The measurements indicated are those of the painting stretched and mounted on a frame (The actual
measurements of the canvas are larger to allow it to be mounted on a frame 2-4cm thick.
