Doris Marten
Layers Object No. 12 by Doris Marten - Abstract painting, minimalist, lines, ink

2020

About the Item

Layers Object No. 12 is a unique ink drawings on Alu-Dibond painting by contemporary artist Doris Marten, dimensions are 55.5 × 121 cm (21.9 × 47.6 in). The artwork is signed, sold unframed and comes with a certificate of authenticity. Between a two-dimensional image and a three-dimensional object, the Layers Series lies. The idea of illusion in the painted lines is being questioned by the artist. Only seven colors are used in the palette, but the way they are placed together gives the impression that there are many more. While some pieces in the series are representations of actual objects, others in the series create the appearance of three dimensions through the juxtaposition of colours with the geometric forms (the layers) made up of lines and colours. Doris Marten investigates how colours are perceived and how they affect one another through the straightforward use of lines. Lines highlight each colour individually and vividly depict how one colour influences another. The artist has amassed a profound understanding of colour, which enables her to produce optical illusions, motion-based impressions, and intense variations in light.
