Perroquet, 2015
oil on canvas
55 x 48 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 "Perroquet" the parrot's figure is abstractly presented and metamorphosed into varied shapes and patches of colour.
"The Perroquet" appear to be in constant motion, with undulating swirls reminiscent of the parrots' movement and even of the nature's that surrounds it. Here, the act of painting becomes similar to a dance, building the story of a movement.
