Exploring colors as they interact with each other on the canvas, artist Nicolas Deshayes incorporates vacuum-formed plastic into his artwork to create a sense of movement.
Working with carefully color blocked areas, and also allowing for some of the colors to bleed into one another, the artist creates a mixed space of different elements. When he places the specially treated clear plastic windows on top of certain areas on his paintings, the artist creates a new way to view the art. The pieces become fused with a sense of rippling motion and the colors seem to shift with a flowing movement. Utilizing different textiles on top of the painted canvas adds another layer to the artwork.
The vacuum-formed plastic used by Nicolas Deshayes keeps his work from staying too still.
