Belle Kröl
CURATOR'S NOTE
Belle Kröl's artistic method is free and unbounded, consisting of flinging, dripping, sprinkling, and layering diverse elements on the canvas. From the vintage wooden table at her studio, Belle experiments with mixed mediums such as acrylics, diverse types of pigments, graphite, gesso, among others. Through her mixed medium way of painting, almost self-tought and intuitive technique, Belle allows line and color to stand alone while utilizing several layers to play with texture and hidden elements. Her pieces have secret details in between the coating, giving a mysterious look and feel.
