Thomas Riesner made "Arrive 1," a 41 x 30 cm painting, with a sort of playful chaos that feels like a party in your head. The colours are bright, but it's the lines, the energetic marks, that really grab you. It’s like watching a painter think out loud, and isn't that exciting? Look closely, and you'll see how the paint dances on the surface. Some areas are thin and transparent, letting the white of the paper breathe through, while others are built up with layers of colour, especially around the central character. The way the black ink drips and splatters creates a sense of movement, like everything is in constant flux. Check out the figure’s eyes – they’re wide and a little wild, as if it has just arrived at this party. This piece reminds me a little bit of Jean-Michel Basquiat, in its raw energy and the way it throws everything at the canvas. It's art that embraces ambiguity, inviting us to bring our own stories to the table.
