VENUZ WHITE SELECTED WORK FROM 2006-2008

LIQUID INSTANTS The colors of White

By Jose Antonio de Ory

So here we are, in front of the color without anything else, alone facing the canvas full of acrylics in a way back to the origins, a trip to the seed, and almost basic effort to understand for oneself, herself, what is going on with the color, how they work, which are the chemical reactions that, when coming together, makes them contract, expand, displace, melt, separate, flow…As Gold expands in black, red contracts in white. But off course, that is not all, because White is an artist not a scientist. Color chemical reaction research she states “ is a metaphor of relations among human beings.” Her colors as individuals when they relate among each other, have a separate temperament and behavior and transform their nature when they interact. They attract, expand, contract, retreat, distance an flow within each other.. �

Venuz White´s paintings area at the same time artist sketches, her navigation Binnacle, topographic maps of her travels around a continuously transforming nature, cardiograms of human emotions in contact with each other. Each piece of “ Liquid Instants” is being conceived as a chapter, as a photogram, as a movie still. White plays with the liquid flows to propose a reflection of the notion of time as a transforming element. In her paintings there is a static liquidity, where time stops but continues flowing within the imagination. It’s Venuz White who explains what se does “as an uncovered skin, this biologically suggestive texture, proposes a cartography, a voyage among the intimate internal space of the forms essence, of everything that exist with in and that slowly reveals to the outside, as a fantastic nature in a chromatic energy discharge that suggest an almost musical rhythm”. �
