Artist Statement – A Moment Between Oil on Canvas | 124 x 184 cm | Framed in Oak
A Moment Between is an abstract impressionist meditation on stillness, space, and the quiet clarity found in pause. Grounded in deep olive and earthy tones, the canvas evokes a sense of rootedness—of being held by something elemental. From this foundation, soft, cotton-like bursts of white rise and dissolve, creating a gentle tension between weight and air, form and openness.
These gestures are intended as breaths—moments of softness that interrupt the density, much like a deep inhale in the middle of noise. They offer visual silence, spaces where the eye can rest and the mind can release.
The process of painting this work was slow and responsive, driven by the idea of carving out calm. Framed in oak, A Moment Between becomes more than a painting; it becomes a space to enter. A quiet threshold where reflection is not only possible, but necessary.
