Indian ink on glass
Screen is
part of a series of Indian ink paintings on glass based on layering processes
and successive coats of black. Their overall alteration and constant
stratification unveil transparencies and hues, plays on gradient black, and
perspectives distantly echoing the classical technique of sfumato. For Justin
Weiler, there are often similarities between the gesture of painting and
sculpting because it is always about confronting oneself to the different
dimensions of the picture’s fabrication. A landscape of minimalistic, abstract
stripes both organic and clinical, Screen is a mirror offering physical
and ghostly variations to the eye.
