New Series; small square Mixed media / Collage artworks on canvas

18 Feb

A new series of small square mixed media/collage artworks by db Waterman, which will debut at the upcoming art fair in Amsterdam. These works blend different materials into landscapes with a melancholic atmosphere, offering viewers a contemplative journey through time.

At the heart of these small artworks lies the unique marriage of mixed media, where layers of textures and colors come together to form intricate compositions. Each small square canvas serves as a window into a world that balances on the edge of memory and emotion.

Central to the series is the conscious decision to depict human figures in a timeless black and white palette, reminiscent of vintage photographs. This intentional monochromatic treatment is reminiscent of vintage photographs. This intentional monochromatic treatment invites viewers to connect with a sense of history and aims to make them reflect on the ephemeral nature of human experiences in the landscapes.

Designed with precision and attention to detail, these small square artworks are not only images but also gateways to introspection. The vintage feel of the black-and-white figures forms a poignant contrast to the vibrant backgrounds with different textures, resulting in a series that is both visually striking and emotionally evocative.
