About "Blue vertigo"

by Auke de Jong

About the artwork

This painting (acrylic on canvas) originally measured 50 x 50 centimetres,
It was worked with palette knives and a glue comb.
The style is abstract and surreal/futuristic.
Technically, grattage (literally: scraping) has been applied. To be precise: grattage with a palette knife in the still wet paint. In the process, the top layer is partly removed, revealing the underlying layer. This creates organic (or: biomorphic) shapes but also sharp, taut lines. Fine transitions and nuances are created in the colour/colours.
Grattage was (re)invented and applied in the middle of the last century by Joan Miró, Antonio Saura and Max Ernst, among others. The technique is characteristic of movements such as Futurism, Cubism and Surrealism.
In this painting, the colour blue evokes an association with the sea (diving). The multitude of shapes and movements lead to vertigo (disorientation). Fish and other sea creatures can easily be detected in the organic shapes.
The repetition of forms (as is common in Futurism) depicts movement (or here also flow)
