MONTY
Genesis I

The first painting showcasing Rebecka’s fascination for imagining the in-between.

Does not the movement of the curious creatures make you wonder — what are they moving through? For it is surely not the matter that surrounds neither me nor you.

And what are they, exactly? Fish? Birds? Something else entirely?

It is really up to you as an observer to decide, what is moving through the mellow — these strange strokes and dots of life — created in pink, green, blue, coral, cream and yellow.

ARTWORK DESCRIPTION

Materials

Acrylic on birch plywood.

Painted with acrylics on a beautiful slab of birch plywood, where the natural grain of the wood has determined how the brushes should move.

Technique

The painting technique devised in order to create this piece is Rebecka’s own, developed over years of curious experimentation. The technique seeks to create a sense of movement, depth, and luminosity while allowing the character of the wood itself to remain an active part of the work.

Dimensions

Approximately 20 × 30 cm.
Frame included.

Frame

The frame has been hand constructed by Jakob at Lärjeå. Made from birch and treated with hardwax oil, it allows the character of the material to remain visible. A twisted brass hanging fixture provides a beautiful little detail that runs throughout the Genesis I collection.
