Boy & Erik Stappaerts (BES) create Conflict and Polarisation Paintings without the conventional act of painting. A painter hasn’t needed a canvas, oil or acrylic paint, or a palette for a long time, much less a brush. Why can’t a painter simply be someone who wants to become sensible of the maximum potential of colours, which no doubt are best suited to ‘paint’ themselves? The painter then plays the part of ‘colour developer’, a person that helps colour – be it a digital creation on a computer or, still, a material mixture of pigments – approximate its optimal ‘fullness’. Colours in their most optimal saturation are given the opportunity in BES’ Conflict Paintings to engage in relationships with each other in orchestrated horizontal colour areas and groupings.
