noname C5, the centered Painting

"NONAME SERIES" THE MOVING BORDERS Abstraction born from repetition. This work is based on writing. The series "NoName" literally meaning "without name" evokes all the unknown, the anonymous, those who live in our neighborhood, sometimes our buildings, travelers, people who come from elsewhere. The "NoName" on the canvas draws the boundaries of a territory on which "whites" (virgin areas) fill with color as a region fills with a population. The colors are different, the mediums too: aerosol, acrylic, inks and pigments. This first completed step corresponds to a view of a space at a given moment. It is a slice of civilization that is portrayed on the canvas. Then, on this colorful background, a story with other unknowns (color, medium) who settle there, is written. They can even change borders. Each canvas has a history of neighborhoods, regions, maritime domains, continents, difficult areas and the cosmos. Borders are moving like human beings, it is we who delimit these arbitrary lines on the surface of the globe. They then change with our story. So let's cross these terrestrial and psychic borders to meet others STEPHANE RIME
