MiLo - INTERSECTIONAL - XXL

MiLo – “Intersectional”

A work by Amsterdam-based artist MiLo (1976).

This piece is built around a bold, cross-shaped structure that divides the canvas into four illuminated corners.
Soft, pale white sections press gently into a deep, textured black centre, creating a quiet tension between presence and void, weight and openness.

Subtle traces of underlayers, scratches, and tonal shifts in the black field reveal the physical process behind the work, while the luminous corners introduce balance and anchor points — almost like windows, thresholds, or zones of calm breaking through the density.

Minimalist yet atmospheric, the painting offers multiple readings: architectural division, spatial mapping, or simply a study in contrast and compositional weight.
It can be hung vertically or horizontally, depending on the collector’s preference.

The painting will be rolled up and shipped in a sturdy tube or box, 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 recognisable contemporary artists on Catawiki.
