About The Artwork

2020 - 2024. Black Abstract The project ‘Black Abstract’ is a conscious exploration of abstraction and essence through the creation of 101 black reliefs without specific meaning or reference. Using Styrofoam as a material and applying layers of black matt paint, independent reliefs were created, free from external influences. The goal of creating a hundred reliefs gave structure and meaning to the project, making it a focused and impactful endeavor. During the working process, 64 short stories were written that reflect the personal experiences of the artist during the creative process. While these stories were not directly illustrated by the reliefs, they created a connection and provided insight into the artist’s journey as a visual artist. They contributed to the overall concept of the project and increased its complexity.The next phase of the project involves the creation of a book combining the images of the reliefs, the stories and the design of an independent designer. This book aims to be a conceptual artist’s book that differs from a simple catalog of the objects depicted. The combination of visual elements, stories and design strengthens the connection between different forms of expression within the project. The Black Abstract project is a multidimensional exploration of abstraction, storytelling and the autonomy of art. The book serves as a cohesive representation of these elements, providing viewers with an immersive and reflective experience. The objects are together one installation and for each object there is made a separate handmade gray-board box, as part of the installation. This installation contains 101 objects.

Peter Spaans (Weesp, 1953, based in Amsterdam). Photography, books, mixed media, installations. Visualization of my fragmented thinking through photography, mixed media, collages, books and installations. In his body of work Peter Spaans ignores obvious subject matter such as famous landmarks; he is more interested in the ordinary cityscapes, and spaces that are often ( or not ) photographed or videotaped by many different people. For Mr. Spaans, it is important to understand these common urban spaces and how they function, as he believes they are what influence our lives the most. These are the spaces we encounter each day; they are where we live our normal day to day livesInspired by the daily life on the streets in different cities, films and photographs (newspapers and magazines). Peter Spaans worked with such curators as Okwui Enwezor (The Second Johannesburg Biennial, the traveling exhibition 'Mirror's Edge' with its share 'The Unknown Cities' project! and the book 'Cream contemporary art in culture'); Hou Hanru (The exhibition 'Unlimited II ' at De Appel, Amsterdam); and Jan Hoet (Sonsbeek 9, with Hans Eijkelboom, Arnhem). Exhibited worldwide, including the USA, Canada, Germany, Italy, Denmark, South Africa, England, Scotland, and the Netherlands. Peter worked on assignments for the Rai and the Bijenkorf, Amsterdam, and collaborated with such artists as Hans Eijkelboom** and Bert Wils*. Peter Spaans is represented by Johan Deumens Gallery, Amsterdam, and by Harper's books, New York.
