When colour helps to investigate the soul.This is what happens in the art of Ellen Pieck, an award winning Dutch artist whose research starts from decoration, but is not limited to pretty lines and shades alone. For this painter who, praised by critics and public alike, has held exhibitions all over the world, the abstraction of signs and colours helps investigating the drives and the states of the subconscious that can be reached neither by reason nor through figurative art. Escape, Reminiscence, En-Vie: the hermetic yet very effective titles of her works themselves symbolize conditions or moments of existence which she represents
with elegant chromatic matches outlining winding or geometric emotional maps.
