ARTIST HIGHLIGHT: Tom Van Puyvelde, °1985, Belgium

“What fascinates me about the process of blending - or fading - is that some kind of essence emerges: a universal energy embedded in the image materializes in the hazy transitions. How to materialize the invisible? How to visualize the immaterial? The cadence of the repetitive brushstrokes is almost like a meditative performance that leads to something bigger than my own mind and being. It’s my way of connecting with the otherness.

My paintings can be seen as painterly meditations on the essential question of how to deconstruct figuration through the painting process. To the point where only the essentials remain: light, color and space.”
