Kon Turner

Abstract artist from Berlin.

Mainly focused on acrylics and spray paint on canvases or wood panels. The pieces are influenced by Graffiti art which the artist has been creating since 1996. As such, his artwork has been exhibited throughout Berlin on the walls of the city. The work combines contrasting colours and geometric forms. Explosive swings, fast brush strokes and squeegee techniques generate abstract or realistic art pieces that feel dynamic, agile and bright.

Everything in life is composed of light, shadow and depths in myriad combinations, so we have to accept that many of them are never fully explored or understood. The paintings feel like a puzzle where life has been taken apart and let you, the viewer, put it back together. When looking at the paintings the artist invites you to start searching for the inexplicable, Imagine a riddle that cannot be solved, he wants you to grumble, he wants you to dream.

“Whenever I am about to create a new piece of art, I will stare at this pristine thing - this spotless canvas - but feel too anxious to start. Until I do and the malaise gets replaced by an agravic flow state.”
