ABOUT THE ARTWORK

This artwork masterfully fuses elements of abstraction and minimalism, featuring a strikingly abstract human face. The composition is dominated by precise, geometric lines and shapes that intersect to form the visage, conveying a sense of harmony and balance. On the left side, a grid of black and red rectangles introduces a bold, modernist aesthetic, evoking the influence of De Stijl. The starkness of the monochrome palate is softened by a single, striking eye rendered in a vivid shade of blue, inviting focus and intrigue. A captivating element is the oversized flower adorning the right side, with graceful, swirling petals in white and yellow, adding a flourish of organic beauty that contrasts with the strict geometry. This juxtaposition highlights the tension between nature and abstraction, creating a nuanced dialogue within the piece. The use of negative space is expertly manipulated to guide the viewer’s gaze, offering a serene and contemplative visual experience. Each line and curve is rendered with precision, emphasizing the artist's skillful control over form and color. This artwork exemplifies the elegance of simplicity while exploring complex themes of identity and perception.

Hildegarde resides and works in Terlanen (S.E. of Brussels) . With an articulate preference for the figure and the nature of woman she went the self-teaching way in the plastic art form . The sensitive approach of this theme remains her source of inspiration which is utterly inexhaustible . The recognition of her artistic plastic language was a fact a couple of years ago when she obtained the third international prize for painting in Libramont . Hildegarde Handsaeme paints mainly women and follows a harmonic and constructively perfect pattern . The figure in itself is dominating but she knows how to put it the right surroundings where nature and cosmos play a symbolic part . With a set of straight lines she builds a mysterial haze of inner feelings on the canvas in a simple but penetrative way . She does not call for hallucinating images bet lets herself go with sensitivity guided by an unfailing intuition . Even when the figures at first sight seem distant they point to a certain duality and yet her usage of colours express a honest alliance between the data and the deeper thoughts .Simply and honestly Hildegarde gives us the message of love and tenderness which should be shown to each individual . In a pictural equilibrated and harmonic way she knows how to remind us of the glamorous intuition of woman . (F. De B. 1997) Hildegarde Handsaeme is a renowned artist hailing from Belgium.
