Jonny Niesche pushes the limits of blue in an emotive limited edition print.

Musk romance in deepest blue is based on the words of philosopher Gaston Bachelard, who saw colour as a gateway to emotion and imagination. The depth of feeling associated with navy is offset by sky blue, pointing towards lighter feelings such reverie and dreams. This rich interplay of colour is exemplar of Jonny's ability to bring a mirror-like quality to his work.

The edition is based upon an original textile work, refined into the medium of print. For the artist, the print will become complete once collectors have connected their own memories and emotions to the colours.

First there is nothing, then there is a deep nothing, then there is blue
Gaston Bachelard

6 collaborations

Australian artist Jonny Niesche sprinkles abstract minimalism with a touch of kitsch. His incandescent compositions ooze from the centre outwards in swathes of carefully rendered pastel hues, all dosed in the rebellious glitter of glam rock. Unabashed by comparison, Jonny is an artist who is excited about art. He lists a reel of names from whom he takes inspiration, including his university tutor Heimo Sobering, contemporary artist Isa Genzken, and, of course, king of glam rock, David Bowie. While his aesthetic is incredibly streamlined, his daily practice operates within very open perimeters, working in a communal studio based on an ethos of sharing equipment and offering supportive critique. In the studio, Jonny’s process is highly technical and fastidious, using a variety of techniques and materials including metal stretchers, voile, digital colour selection and dye sublimation – a process that uses heat to transfer dye.

I absolutely love the textured details. The picture literally pops off the canvas and the floating frame encompasses those details perfectly. Amazing job by Jake Fried and the Avant Arte team! I'm excited for my next purchase.
