Untitled 2018

This Untitled piece was made with marker pen on paper by Kinder Album. You know, there's a directness and a certain urgency in the way the artist has approached mark-making here. It feels immediate, like a snapshot of a moment, the colors laid down flatly. I keep coming back to the way the ground is rendered. It's this intense orange-red, almost vibrating with energy, and it's made up of these little strokes all going in the same direction, kind of like short, choppy brushstrokes. It gives the ground a really tangible, almost tactile quality. It's not just a flat plane, it’s something you could almost reach out and touch. The colour palette is almost Fauvist. I wonder if they looked at Matisse? That combination of looseness and precision, it’s what keeps drawing me in. It reminds me that art isn’t about perfection, it's about process. It embraces experimentation, happy accidents, and the beauty of imperfection.
