Original artwork description:

If you look at this painting and you close your eyes half, you see a big circle on the painting. It represents a big hug. There are many more XOXO on the painting and they represent many more hugs and kisses.

I always aim for layering color in a way that every dot is different.

Niederhauser builds layers from the surface of each canvas to present dots of color that appear in 3D. This manipulation of space through color change and combination challenges the viewer’s perception of depth.

CANVAS:
This particular work is painted on a high quality woodpanel canvas which is 3.5cm deep and collaged with sheet music on all 4 sides.

SERIES:
It is part of her new series: hugs and kisses

INSPIRATION:
I was very fascinated during packing of artworks to send overseas and discovered the bubble wrap paper with bubble and started to paint on those. It ended up with my new successful collection.

COMMENTS FROM THE STUDIO
The base layer of this work is a collage of bookpages, I add bubble wrap paper and 4 layers of highest grade artist resin. Most bubbles are fully coveres with resin ans swim in it and are still visible as bubbles, in some parts of the artwork the bubbles are half in the resin. It gives a really nice play. The bookpages are on some parts still visible. I love how it turned out.

PERSONAL COMMENT FROM THE ARTIST
Every single dot with O represents a hug and the X a kiss.

Materials used:
