About "Traces of time"

by Hans Kwaspen

About the artwork

I see beauty where others may only see decay. This abstract photographic work is a testament to time and transformation, a silent dialogue between matter and impermanence. The rough textures and peeling paint reveal layers of history-tracks of what once was and what is yet to come.

My inspiration comes from the power of wabi-sabi, the Japanese philosophy that embraces imperfection and impermanence. In the weathered wall I see stories, in the loosening paint I feel a quiet melancholy. The deep blue line and the contrasting red vertical stripe form an unintentional composition, a chance harmony that lends itself to contemplation. There is an atmosphere of hushed poetry here-a moment caught in the flow of time.

This work resonates with the visual language of Antoni Tàpies and Cy Twombly, who also explore the power of texture and layering. What makes this work so special is the invitation to look further, to find art in the everyday traces of time and decay. As a work of art on the wall, it offers not only visual depth but also a philosophical layer-a tribute to the imperfect and a constant source of new interpretations. This is not just an image; it is an experience.
