Andreas Diaz Andersson‘s minimalist abstractions, created with cotton thread on canvas, are defined by both their harmonious use of lines and color as well as the negative space of the canvas. ENTRE explores this notion in its entirety. Executed with exceptional precision and meticulous attention to detail, his works are an exploration of depth and form, oscillating between illusion and abstraction. The spaces left between each thread allow the composition to take shape with a spatially reflective quality.
A constant variation of dynamic geometric patterns and deep vanishing points play with perception, fluctuating as the viewer sees the work from different angles. In a sense, Diaz Andersson is caught between two worlds. The influence of his education, first in Sweden and then in Mexico, is evident in his work. Scandinavian order and organization define his technique. Colors and textures evoke the Mexican sense of warmth and materiality. Both countries have a strong tradition of textile art, but it is a synthesis of two very different cultures that Diaz Andersson successfully expresses in his works, creating paintings that are both unique and universal.
