Matthew van Liessum
The intensity of Matthew van Liessum’s abstract pieces is hard to miss. The large dashes of paint across the monochromatic canvas transmit the energy and force invested in the art. Each work is made as an expression of the artist’s feelings, making it unique to the fleeting moment of its creation.
Never formally trained as an artist, Matthew van Liessum pushes the boundaries of abstract art through his unique engagement with the canvas.
His approach is not a methodical process, but an experience. The Antwerp based artist paints intuitively, using unconventional materials and methods. Listening to music while he works is an integral part of his painting journey. The abstract energy of the music is carried over to the canvas with bold strikes of dark paint that creates a dance-like element. Van Liessum aims to create a harmonious synergy between himself and the canvas, making each piece unique in the experience it transmits.
