Detailed description

Picture "untitled III/20" (2020)

At the end of the classical painting process with oil on laminated wood panels, I carve the figures out of the picture support using a chisel and hammer. Instead of recognizable individuals arise so stretched surfaces in the wood. These allow the viewer his own interpretation of the figure. At the same time, this technique questions our visual habits and our deeply stored ideal of beauty.

About Steffen Blunk

I came to art late in life: First I was a journalist and entrepreneur, before I studied painting at the age of 42 and thus turned my whole life upside down.
I am grateful for my earlier experiences in other professions; they give me the inner freedom to create art that has something to say. That does not fit into every living room, but to people who have a mind of their own, who do not seek beauty in the decorative and who want to express that with the works they collect.
