Human Madness
A project of nine works forming one painting. Man would still behave like chimpanzees if we had no artists and scientists amongst us who dared to go in against the crowd. But still, we remain primates.
Canvas 01
Still a surprise, also for myself.
Canvas 02
Curie Picasso Playing
There are ideas forming. At the moment you see Marie Curie playing with a radium marble, Picasso dripping ****. That's the status now, this part is not finished.
Canvas 03
The top right corner has to paint itself, like a book
Canvas 04
When canvas 6 is ready, I decide what to create as opposed to that.
Canvas 05
Caravaggio Temptation Melancholia
This center piece has been through quite a few stages. In the previous stage it was called “Bar Dancing Melancholia” as a reference to the movie of Lars Von Trier. It still is like that but the idea has changed from an ode to that man's work to the work of artists in general.
The painting started in 2018 and is now almost finished as the middle of the ninetych. I had no idea that it would be like that. In particular during Covid I made many changes. I hope I can plan the next stages better since I intend to finish the whole idea in 2024.
More about this fifth canvas that was the first one created, and images of its history and development, soon here on this next page.
Canvas 06
Looking for a strong contrast within this sixth canvas. Something like “nature will always survive”. Exciting as it will be opposed to canvas four.
