The soft light of snow, surrounded by a darkness that makes the world seem still for a moment. A moment in which contours blur and the smallest difference between light and dark becomes palpable. In this painting, I seek that stillness. The deep black and the warm, light nuances do not form a harsh contrast, but slowly blend into one another.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Color Palette\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor this work, I chose a palette that connects light and darkness: deep charcoal black as an enveloping color, with warm gray, soft taupe tones, and off-white in the elongated field of color. Not all nuances are immediately visible, but they live within the work. On the left, the light begins, after which it slowly disappears into the darkness to the right. That soft transition is reminiscent of snow that is just barely illuminated in the night.\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 elongated field of color is inspired by the Japanese aesthetic of \u003cem\u003ema\u003c\/em\u003e, the power of the empty space that envelops everything. The dark outer surface gives the light nuances 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 also forms 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 × 20.5 cm\u003cbr\u003eMaterial: Acrylic paint on panel\u003cbr\u003eHanging system: Original design with a 3 cm wooden spacer\u003cbr\u003eBack: Painted in Prussian blue\u003cbr\u003eUnique original: Hand-signed by Jordy Koumans\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDelivery \u0026amp; Pickup\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis work is available in two ways:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePickup in Tilburg: personal pickup at my studio in Carré, Tilburg.\u003cbr\u003eShipping: carefully packed and insured shipping, worldwide.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIncludes certificate of authenticity.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"KOJO Art","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":66300230861149,"sku":null,"price":175.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0983\/8778\/8125\/files\/zwart-werk-als-productafbeelding-op-lichtgrijs.png?v=1792744048","url":"https:\/\/www.kojoart.com\/en\/products\/yoru-no-yuki-origineel","provider":"KOJO Art","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
