red torso II (55*65)

this series of paintings was very important to me because it was the first time i fully painted with nothing but industrial inks (the kind used for mass serigrafie). i had been playing with them by using them in some drawings but not more. an other important painting was one that gave the meaning to the colours i use. it was called "white red and black are the memories i no longer have". in the torso series i introduced blue.
actually all these paintings are just red and blue (some white and black) straight from the can, as a result of the violence they talk about. an overwhelming density of violent acts. wounds to the side. the thick ink did the job nicely.
