About the Item

Layer No.23 is an abstract painting by contemporary German artist Doris Marten. India ink on Alu-Dibond, 40 cm × 32.5 cm (15,8 x 12,8 in). The Layers series exists at the intersection of two-dimensional imagery and three-dimensional form. Through this body of work, Marten explores the concept of illusion using painted lines. Although limited to a palette of just seven colors, the artist’s strategic juxtapositions create the impression of a much broader chromatic spectrum. Some pieces in the series are tangible objects, while others rely on the interplay of color and geometric shapes (the “layers”) to suggest depth and dimensionality. With a refined use of lines, Doris Marten delves into how colors are perceived and how they influence one another. Each line reveals a distinct hue, yet their superposition brings about subtle optical effects. Drawing on her deep understanding of color theory, the artist generates visual illusions, sensations of motion, and striking variations of light. Time itself becomes a material in her creative process, a vital component in the evolution of each piece.
