"Abstract art is a visual language of forms, colors and lines creating a composition which can exist completely independently of the classical visual references. The composition of their paintings, as much the lines as the forms and the colors, is very studied, but it neither needs to tell a story, nor needs to represent a scene from the real world.
To achieve this total distance from the concrete world, abstract artists follow three main lines of creation:
- Purification of reality, of nature. Thus, the artist uses elements of the world around him, but he distorts them, distorts them until we can no longer make the connection between the work and reality.
- Let your emotions run free on the canvas, sometimes using music.
- The last axis is inspired by cubism: some artists start from geometric shapes to create their paintings, giving birth to certain movements. "
