MAA, France
Based in Tokyo
Through layering of sprayed oil paint, Thomas Gillant’s works interplay between flat surface and perceived depth. While maintaining smooth physical surfaces, the paintings create ambiguous optical dimensions with gestural mark-making and coordinated color relationships. His work blurs distinctions between painted and digital aesthetics, and addresses the perception of pictorial space.
スプレーで重ねた油絵具の層を通して、トーマス・ジランの作品は平らな表面と感じられる奥行きの間で対話します。なめらかな表面を保ちながら、作品は身振りのような筆跡と調和の取れた色使いによって、不思議な視覚的な空間を生み出します。彼の作品は、絵画とデジタルの表現の境界をあいまいにし、絵画空間の見え方について問いかけます。
