Big Feet, 2015
oil on canvas
67 x 55 cm
Following a thorough re-evaluation of her creative process and a continuous search for intuitive painting, the Rezi Van Lankveld has liberated her works from all remnants of concrete figuration. In this work the feet as figurative body part are presented even further removed from the idea of implicit unity and synchrony and they are metamorphosed into varied shapes and patches of colour.
The Big Feet appear to be in constant motion, with undulating swirls reminiscent of real feet shapes.
Consequently, the act of painting becomes similar to a dance, building the story of a movement.
