Oliva ultramarine (VIII)

Atelier Lieverse turns selected originals into an exclusive small edition, which guarantees the authenticity of Christiaan Lieverse. These works are numbered, but individually produced, which gives each work a unique character.

Each work consists of several layers of texture-bearing paint, wall paint and acrylic paint. Although the lines of the editions are the same, each individual work has significant differences due to the variety of techniques such as painting, burning, staining and smearing.

These works are about today's world. Identity and diversity in a globalizing world; cultural identity and migration; social identity in a growing virtual environment. Combining beauty, imperfection and cultures makes you curious and invites you to reflect on contemporary themes from a different perspective.

Atelier Lieverse's work is about identity in a globalizing world. People who look at something or someone outside the canvas. The emotion is clearly perceptible. Something has happened or something is about to happen. Like a movie still. With his work Lieverse wants to create a connection between the viewer and the unknown. Empathetic from the first meeting. Characteristic of Lieverse's works are the large dimensions, the monochrome use of color, the raw linen and the coarse relief.
