Kees van de Wal about these works

Kees van de Wal 0763

In my search for the ultimate shape – a shape that says it all with minimal means – I am currently making wall objects in which shape and residual shape play the leading role. In the process, new shapes emerge that take their place in the space and thus acquire their right to exist.

At the moment – since the summer of 2022 – I am inspired by cardboard from old packaging boxes and make large and small wall objects. In all these years, tranquillity and minimalism have remained.

I get the boxes from friends and shops in the area. They have been used, something has been packed in them, transported, it has travelled a distance. There are fold lines, nicks and adhesive edges. It’s damaged. The material challenges me to create new shapes, minimalist, tranquil objects.

There is no hanging option on the back; the work can be attached to the wall between brackets.
