About Valère Wittevrongel’s paintings

Shadow sides

Warmly resonating red bands, sparsely repeated according to a fixed order. Valère Wittevrongel paints a hymn to space and measure. On a single canvas, or divided into a diptych or triptych, he composes colors and rectangles into subdued works. From the darkness he knows how to conjure light. The dark red rhymes with the deep, almost black tones of the adjacent planes. From the darkness there is no threat but rather a sense of security.
The red resounds for a long time.
