SVEN-OLE FRAHM
Painting
150 x 110 cm
In hisrecent works Sven-Ole Frahm deliberately, consciously and meticulously cut circles andrectangles in the canvas, every color and shape is no longer a painted gesture.It is now expressed by using the canvas as a material in itself Some of thecuts leave hanging strips of canvas, showing the viewer both sides of the painting.The deconstruction-destruction process is absolutely under the artist control.
Born in 1972 in Bonn, lives and works in Berlin.
The artist’s practice is one of experimenting and risktaking. Engaging oneself and playing with the unexpected, are part of hiscreative process. The materiality of the paint on the pure linen, thejuxtaposition of sewn and falling strips of canvas, and the three dimensionalexpansion into pyramidal volumes, emphasize a physical experience of his art.
