M O T I F is a series that takes us back in time. The collection focuses on humankind's similarities concerning our desire to create, our tools, our spirituality and the frequent reoccurrence of specific shapes and imagery throughout history. From our humble beginnings painting in caves to the patterns and forms we use now, plenty of similarities can be found in art all over the globe. These similarities suggest a shared creative conscience regardless of culture or even age. Motif draws from markings made in caves by our ancestors and modern designs, creating a new language of patterns understandable by all.
Each painting is carefully created by applying 3D markings onto a painted canvas, alternating between a variety of metallic colours and hues.
Gold leaf and other precious metals, add another layer of texture and a historical sense of preciousness to some of the collections larger pieces. The patterns within the paintings are created with lighting in mind. The changes in direction and shape of the markings, create a beautiful metallic shine, highlighting different details according to the positioning of the lighting.
The series is inspired by a variety of cultures, from East Asian culture to the Ancient Mayans. Historical research is carried out on the selected theme during the planning stage. The selected colours, values and spiritual questions brought forth by each culture, all inspire a unique, modern twist to geometrical art.
