Throughout April, Slovak artist Kanrec Sakul will be in residence at the Telegraph, and he will present his works at the opening of Open Studio in the studio.
Kanrec Sakul (*1989) creates detailed oil paintings, obsessive drawings, and raw objects or installations. His paintings are characterized by a strong interest in experimenting with textures and organic forms. He deliberately works with repetition, geometric shapes, and relative perspective, which is reflected in an expressive and absurd color palette. Through variations and combinations of glazed and impasto sections, Fauvist sensibility, and the use of color, he constructs surreal micro-worlds dominated by architectural scenes whose function, time, and place of existence remain unclear. Sakul presents various totemic objects, biomorphic shapes, interior details, platforms, cages, imaginary ceremonial sites, or hints of urban structures, which unfold across both small formats and monumental canvases.
