TRANSLUCENT ART ON PAPER      TRANSLLUCENN SERIES      PHILIPPE HALABURDA STUDIO     2020

Diaphanous visions

About the theme of "translucency"

Employing transparent color tapes in my artistic process, I explore the concept
of translucency and its interplay with light and perception.

By layering and superimposing these tapes, I create abstract shapes that evoke
a sense of ambiguity, where elements reveal and obscure one another.

This technique allows me to experiment with the balance between transparency and opacity, inviting viewers to contemplate the composition's hidden depths
and obscured details.  

Through careful arrangement and manipulation of transparent color tapes,
I seek to emulate the optical properties of translucent materials, where light
is diffused and refracted to produce intricate patterns and textures.

By varying the density and placement of tapes, I can control the degree
of translucency within the artwork, creating dynamic visual effects that
challenge traditional notions of depth and dimensionality.

The resulting abstract shapes blur the boundaries between the foreground
and background, inviting viewers to explore the composition's interplay between light and shadow.  

Incorporating translucent elements into my collages and tape compositions adds a layer of complexity and ambiguity to the artwork, encouraging viewers to engage with the piece on multiple levels.

The subtle interplay of light and color creates an ethereal quality
that enhances the overall visual experience, inviting contemplation
and introspection.

By embracing the notion of ambiguity, I aim to create artworks that resonate with viewers on a visceral and intellectual level, sparking curiosity
and inviting interpretation.
