De kleurrijke abstracte kunst van kunstenaar Christoph Van Daele is als een levendig feest voor de zintuigen, waar elke penseelstreek een verhaal vertelt en elke kleur een emotie uitdrukt.
Mijn inspiratie voor mijn abstracte werk haal ik voornamelijk uit het werk van Jackson Pollock, Gerhard Richter, Barnett Newman, Leon Berkowitz, Ad Reinhardt en Mark Rothko ... allemaal topkunstenaars die de kleur zijn verhaal laten vertellen ... Soms ook wel Color Field Painting genoemd ... Het is mijn grote en geheime droom om ooit in hun voetsporen te treden ... |

The challenge of abstract painting is to create meaningful images that people can communicate with, connect with and find a story in. The aim is to reconfigure the abstract elements in a credible way so that they become believable.
Through my creative process I seek to find something new, to reveal hidden emotions and give them tangible form with color. While painting, there is no separation between intellect, emotion and act. Through gestural arcs of colour and spontaneity I manipulate the canvas’ surface, building a harmonic stratum of vivid colour, line and texture.
I consistently challenge myself to produce exciting developments in composition, methodology and technique. Through passion, deep conviction, and directness and openness in communication, I aim to captivate the viewer long after the exhibition is over.

The artist Van Daele Christoph uses for his abstract work a mixture of pure pigment, sawdust, woodpulp, natural woodfibers, water and various glue's to create a textured surface that dries into a monochromatic primordial landscape. By doing this process on a canvas he explores the volume of color, from deep red to blue and orange, all the way to a simple but strong black.
The final result shows a terrestrial surface of which is built up by hand over the course of several days.
This is a demanding physical process that Christoph dubs as a continuous action, like a performance. Each piece’s process is influenced by factors beyond his control including temperature, water and density.

Van Daele Christoph has developed his practice around the manipulation of organic material, trying to find a secular sense of spirituality. Using and taking advantage of the beauty inherent in natural pigment and wood chips Chrstoph creates works of a minimalist nature that seek to connect man with nature. By examining these materials, Christoph finds the connection between the spiritual of the creative gesture - often uncontrollable - and the sanctity of what the earth gives us with humility.
