A Composition Built on Material Depth and Controlled Intensity
Number 72 is a large-scale contemporary abstract artwork conceived around a metallic tin-toned background, activated by deep wine red and black gestures. The painting is built as a dense yet refined surface, where material presence, contrast and restraint coexist in balance.
The metallic tin base acts as a cool, architectural ground, reflecting light softly and giving the surface a subtle industrial elegance. Over it, wine red gestures introduce warmth, tension and emotional depth, while black splashes add structure, rhythm and visual gravity. The interaction between matte and metallic areas allows the artwork to change subtly depending on light and viewing angle.
From a distance, the piece feels strong, elegant and controlled. Up close, it reveals a rich surface of layered paint, splashes and material interactions that give the work depth, texture and tactile presence.
This is a painting designed to bring material intensity and quiet strength into the space it inhabits.

- Rich in texture while visually restrained
The surface evolves subtly with changing light conditions, reinforcing the artwork’s physical and living presence.

Materials & Artistic Process
Number 72 is created using mixed media on canvas, combining:
- Acrylic paint
- Enamel layers
- Metallic pigments
- Controlled gestural applications
The process is layered and physical, built progressively to allow splashes, overlaps and subtle accidents to remain visible. Variations in texture and reflectivity create a surface rich in depth and quiet visual complexity.
Each artwork is individually created in the studio. While part of a limited edition, no two pieces are ever exactly the same.
