{"product_id":"shigure-origineel","title":"Shigure | Original","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eShigure\u003c\/em\u003e (時雨), a brief rain shower in late autumn or early winter. The moment when the sky darkens and the colors of the earth draw closer together. The rain passes by, but the stillness remains. In this painting, I explore that transition. The aubergine outer surface and the warm, muted nuances in the center bring together the coolness of the sky and the warmth of the earth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Color Palette\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor this work, I chose a palette that combines depth and earthy warmth: muted aubergine and mauve as enveloping colors, with warm brown tones, soft taupe, and dark grey-brown nuances in the central color field. Not all nuances are immediately visible, but they live within the work. The soft vertical transitions evoke rain that momentarily blurs the view. Not a literal depiction of a landscape, but the feeling of a quiet autumn day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTechnique \u0026amp; Material\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003ePainted with acrylic paint on panel, built up layer by layer. The surface has a subtle texture that looks different in changing light. The tight composition with the central color field is inspired by the Japanese aesthetic of \u003cem\u003ema\u003c\/em\u003e, the power of empty space that envelops everything. The aubergine outer surface gives the warmer nuances in the center space to come into their own.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA floating effect on the wall\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor these paintings, I have developed my own hanging system. The 3 cm wooden block on the back keeps the panel straight and parallel to the wall, with space between the painting and the wall. This makes the work appear to float and creates a spatial 3D effect.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe back is also part of the work: I have painted it Prussian blue. In combination with the distance from the wall, this creates a deep, dark shadow effect that gives the painting extra dimension. Not only the painted front, but also the space behind it contributes to the experience of the work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eSize: 40 × 40 cm\u003cbr\u003eMaterial: Acrylic paint on panel\u003cbr\u003eUnique original: Hand-signed by Jordy Koumans\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDelivery \u0026amp; Collection\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis work is available in two ways:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCollection in Tilburg: personal collection at my studio in Carré, Tilburg.\u003cbr\u003eShipping: carefully packed and shipped with insurance, worldwide.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIncludes certificate of authenticity.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"KOJO Art","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":66327137911133,"sku":null,"price":250.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0983\/8778\/8125\/files\/productfoto-op-lichtgrijze-achtergrond.png?v=1793020823","url":"https:\/\/www.kojoart.com\/en\/products\/shigure-origineel","provider":"KOJO Art","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
