Frank van Ansem

Seemingly incongruous color combinations in poetic harmony. Frank van Ansem explores the ordered chaos of piles of paint samples to find the planes and proportions he incorporates into his work.
He plays out the colors in metric compositions of triangles, squares, lines and rectangles in which bright and muted hues meet: unexpected color combinations that reinforce or repel each other. Tightly painted, sometimes combined with fluffy gray insulation blanket, on wood.

He “eats with his eyes” and finds.
