About the Item

This contemporary abstract painting by Alice Teichert shines like the sun. It will be featured in an exhibition called Confluence 11 October 2025 — 9 November 2025 and will be available for shipping after that. The radiant imagery of this Canadian artist is achieved through the meticulous application of layer upon layer of translucent pigment. Alice Teichert’s artwork is exceptionally luminous, a quality she associates with energy, motion and the feeling of joy. Central Sun features two large panels of colour—rosy hues and pale yellow. Divided by a clean vertical line in black, flashes of phosphorescent orange and white appear in the center. Borders frame the work, adding both complementary and contrasting colours—deeper tones of golden yellow, burgundy, lavender, turquoise, bright pink, and deep blue. A single bright orange dot appears on one panel—a strategic focal point that draws the viewer’s eye and prompts us to pull back to see the work in its entirety. Remnants of text also appear through the haze of colour…just barely legible, a historical reference and a reminder of Teichert’s background in printmaking and love of books. The complex lacework of soulful elements in Alice Teichert’s art is rooted in a life spent embracing the arts—playing music, writing and drawing. Alice’s mother was an accomplished pianist, and once, while she was playing, an artist and family friend encouraged a 12-year-old Alice to draw the sound of her mother’s music. Teichert’s own poetic visual language is designed to evoke emotion and invite the viewer into another world. “If the overall image has a minimalistic feel, if I put a dot in there, it brings things into scale…the enormity…So we have this very grounded sense of relationship that we create with the work.” Alice Teichert “The luminous layered works she dubs 'glyph graphs' shift colours as the light changes throughout the day, in a way changing what they say. Like subway art, form outranks mere words.” Fish Griwkowsky, Arts Writer Alice Teichert was born in Paris, France, in 1959. She studied music, philosophy and visual arts in Belgium and France. Teichert’s degree in printmaking and subsequent work solidified a lifelong fascination with text, another signature element of her artwork. Teichert moved to North America in the mid-1980s, living between New York City and Toronto. There, she met some of the most respected abstract expressionist artists of the time, including Jules Olitski and Kenneth Noland. Helen Frankenthaler, a major player in the history of American post-war painting, was highly regarded for her spontaneous approach and fluid, lyrical style and became a mentor to Teichert. Since 1989, Alice Teichert has built an international career with over 40 solo exhibitions in Canada, France, Switzerland, Germany and Australia. The recipient of numerous awards, in 2024, she was inducted into the prestigious Royal Academy of Canadian Arts (RCA) in recognition of her exceptional contribution to the visual arts. Alice Teichert’s paintings are held in many private, corporate and public collections worldwide.

On Silverlode Road - Oversized Large Abstract Figurative Original Artwork
By Jonas Fisch
Located in Los Angeles, CA
Swedish artist Jonas Fisch’s imagery is vibrantly buzzing with colorful commentary on society - past and present - morphed into figures, words, and shapes. His heavily layered canvases are the foundations of a new visual dialogue. Fisch paints with a jazz-like spontaneity, expressing personal emotions, commenting on contemporary society, and exploring old mythologies. Formulating a galaxy of the unknown, Fisch’s textural paintings flood the mind with possibility. His process is instinctive and organic, the paintings energetic and vibrant, emerging from his subconscious without judgment. They are constructed by feelings trying to find harmony. Endless figures, messages, layers, and symbols move in and out of focus as the eye explores his puzzle pieces with varied solutions. Jonas Fisch created this large colorful 93-inch tall by 67-inch wide painting with mixed media. acrylic, and oil stick on canvas. This artwork is stretched and is ready to hang. It is signed by the artist on the back of the painting. This artwork does not require framing. Free delivery is available for those in the local Los Angeles area, and affordable worldwide shipping is available for US and international art collectors. A certificate of authenticity issued by the art gallery is included with the artwork, ensuring that the piece is an authentic work of art from Jonas Fisch. Born in a small fisherman's village in southern Sweden, contemporary artist Jonas Fisch discovered his love for drawing and painting at a young age and was inspired to pursue his passion by renowned artist and grandmother Ann-Marie Sjögren. Fisch reflects, “As a fundamentally introspective person, I have an explosive need to express and communicate my innermost rays, reflections, and shadows. The canvas, the brush, and the paint allow me to act out, throw up, confront, and examine those innermost feelings. Painting becomes my outlet. At a certain moment, each shape, stroke, and color suddenly takes over and the painting reveals itself. It becomes an expressive personal collaboration of art." Fisch's artworks have been exhibited across the United States, Switzerland, and Hong Kong. His paintings can be found in private collections worldwide.
