Onos
ONOS transforms gesture into presence. Each painting is built from sculptural layers of paint, applied in movements that remain visible and tactile. The strokes, reminiscent of petals or fragments of nature, seem to hover across the canvas, suspended between gravity and weightlessness.
Light plays a central role in the series. As it shifts across the textured surfaces, the works appear to change throughout the day, revealing new depths and nuances. This constant dialogue between material and light gives ONOS its distinctive vitality. Rooted in reduction yet rich in detail, ONOS invites the viewer into a moment of contemplation. A space where movement is stilled, and stillness becomes alive.
