About the Item

Serie II number 4 - combination of minimalism geometric draw and abstract writing (circle and stripes). Made in black and white colors. Gouache and varnish on 250g black paper Black Black Fabriano Nadia Bourouma is a French artist, who living and working in Strasbourg. She has a degree in visual arts and I also follow a training course in graphic design. After working for several years on botanical and naturalist illustrations, she has changed. She didn’t feel the necessity of being realistic anymore. She is drawing in her form of creative expression, she uses gouache, ink, and coloured pencils. Paper is her favorite support. By his delicacy reminds her of the fragility of creative thought. Her work is exhibited in France, Germany, and England. Style description Her artwork is based on the repetition of the line. The geometrics element scan both support or disturb those lines. By doing the same hand gesture over and over, she, somehow, disconnects herself from drawing. She would rather question, evaluate, and accept the conscious use of instinct, intellect, and intuition. Her work remains visual, she likes to play with the same components to find different harmony. She thinks of her art as a combination of minimalism geometric draw and abstract writing. The empty space is an integral part of the artwork. She believes that the slightest line can disrupt the whole composition and so the drawing and the non-drawing parts are perceived through the same look. She also loves working on contradiction like : vertical/horizontal motion empty/filled space glossy/mat rhythm/dissonance harmony/tension geometry/abstraction For her, the titles are interrupting the imagination process so her drawings are only numbered. Her work is influenced by the Bauhaus movement. On an everyday matter She can be inspired by architecture, design, shadows, layout or just a simple pattern.

  • Specifically Nowhere, Yellow (Abstract Geometric Painting with Grids on Yellow)
    By Donise English
    Located in Hudson, NY
    Large abstract geometric painting with intricate line work in pencil and gouache on a bright yellow background "Specifically, Nowhere (Yellow)" made by Hudson Valley artist, Donise English, in 2022 gouache, acrylic, pencil, and colored pencil on paper, mounted on panel 48 x 48 inches unframed, 50 x 50 inches with a dark brown stained wood floater frame Surface is protected with four coats of an archival UV protective varnish Signed, verso Excellent condition and ready to hang This large abstract geometric painting was made by Hudson Valley based artist, Donise English, in 2022. The composition begins with a bright yellow background overlaid with intricate line work in graphite and colored pencil. Thousands of hand drawn lines serve as a backdrop for a bold geometric form in a dusty violet and dark gray gridded pattern that references "an imagined city grid", says the artist. The painting on paper is mounted to wood panel and complemented with a dark stained wood floater frame. It's in excellent condition and ready to hang as is. The surface is protected with four coats of an archival UV protective varnish. More about the work: Donise English emphasizes lines, grids, and fields of subtle color to evoke imagined places and invented structures. While precise lines and straight angles are often associated with themes in architecture and urban planning designs, English conveys a geometric motif guided by intuition rather than a ruler. Variations on grids retain flaws and unmistakable traces of the artists’ hand; her style of draftsmanship shies away from intellectualism and instead makes her compositions feel very personal. Each design is intensely intricate, incorporating gouache, acrylic, pen, graphite, ink and colored pencil. Artist Statement: My work is about the way visual diagrams present information that describes how something is made or the way it is. I am interested in drawing and collaging multiple layers of information that refer abstractly to maps, architectural drawings and blueprints or patterns and structures found in such things as roller coasters, power lines and fences. I use gouache and collaged paper in a series of layers that are a visual and ideological response to the previous layer to define my pictorial space. For each piece I create a set of rules to follow about the use of a limited palette, a grid format, opacity of paper and whether a piece may include curving lines or maintain a rectilinear structure.
