About "Industrial Silence"

by Auke de Jong

About the artwork

This painting (acrylic on canvas) originally measured 30 x 40 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 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.
This painting is titled: Industrial Silence; (also the title of an album by Norwegian band Madrugada). In the image, we see machines and a lot of movement. The transition from black through greys to white is beautiful.
The repetition of shapes (as is common in Futurism) is used to suggest movement (speed) and sound (-waves)....
