Painting: timeless art…

One of the seven arts, painting is de facto reminiscent of the paintings exhibited in the most prestigious museums, like the Mona Lisa by Leonardo da Vinci. However, it is a timeless form of art which has remarkably managed to span the ages, from before Jesus Christ to Prehistory, Antiquity, the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. If being a painter had nothing rewarding, today its democratization has made small shadow painters into protagonist artists of society. Oil painting, acrylic, watercolor, pastel or mixed media, painting captivates in all its forms.

Acrylic, a paint that adapts

Acrylic paint and its design

Acrylic is a paint whose solvent is largely composed of water. It is made from a mixture of pigments and acrylic resin and dries by evaporation of the water it contains.

The American printers Leonard Bocour and Sam Golden invented a first version of acrylic paint and put it on sale in 1949. Subsequently, the chemist Henry Levinson created artistic acrylic paint in 1963, diluted in water. Painters such as Andy Warhol and David Hockney used it very quickly. In Mexico, it was also designed around 1950. Chemists, in collaboration with Mexican mural painters, developed it during the creation of frescoes on the facades of the University of Mexico.

Description
Säme explores the tension between intimacy and universality through geometric shapes and colours. The magenta red symbolises passion and intensity, creating a captivating atmosphere, while the central white square offers a sanctuary of calm and reflection. The gradients from red to white evoke transitions between emotional states, while the square, symbolising stability, contrasts with the dynamic energy of red, creating visual and emotional depth. Using layered acrylic techniques, Säme manages to create subtle transitions and textures. Blending minimalism and abstract expressionism, this work invites the viewer to find peace and balance within chaos.
