These paintings exist in different formats: 100 x 100cm , 60 x 60cm , 30 x 30cm
... : as a diptych square/circle ... : black/white and blue/white
These paintings explore the legacy of the monochrome. Here, one and the same painting can be all white and at another moment all black. Between these two states, the viewer see a slow material transformation. This paradox questions the monochrome as an absolute state of pure colour and constantly negotiates its condition by being simultaneously one and its opposite.
