About the Item

"Lacuna 2", 2024, Paris, France This artwork, created with India ink on antique cotton, evokes a visceral play between texture, pattern, and absence. Titled "Lacuna", the piece is an exploration of the concept itself—lacuna, from the Latin for "gap" or "void," refers to a missing part, an unfilled space, or an absent detail within a whole. The painting's composition is dominated by an intricate, almost organic arrangement of black ink blotches that resemble reptilian scales or cellular structures, expanding and contracting across the aged cotton surface. The density of these forms shifts subtly from top to bottom, gradienting from a lighter, airy speckling to a saturated, inky mass, mirroring a natural fading of decay or growth. What punctuates the rhythmic pattern is a stark vertical void—an intentional omission in the ink's flow—standing as the embodiment of lacuna itself. This bar of negative space interrupts the visual continuity, drawing attention to the absence as much as the presence, challenging the viewer to contemplate what is missing as much as what is seen. Option to purchase the painting individually, or consider pairing with its counterpart "Lacuna 1", as pictured. The pattern carries though both pieces, playing them against each other nicely. Please note, price and dimensions are for one painting only. Artists' signature and Evans Deventer stamp can be found the back, along with the painting's name, the location of where work was done and year, 2024.

By Nicholas Evans

"Lus Osculi" (Abstract Black & White, Graphic Painting, Roman-inspired, Neutral)
By Nicholas Evans
Located in Paris, IDF
Drawing inspiration from the ancient Roman term "Los Osculi," translating to "right to kiss," the artist delves into a compelling exploration of the past's intriguing customs. In ancient Rome, women were prohibited from drinking as it was believed to lead to adultery and even possess abortifacient properties. Consequently, the husband and male family members of an "honest" woman possessed the right to kiss her on the mouth to ensure her sobriety. The allure of fleeting kisses, whispers of scent, and the sensuality of suspicion captivated the artist's imagination. On an antique French canvas...
