Reymo

Raymond Gorissen graduated in Painting at the Municipal Academy of Visual Arts in Bilzen, Belgium.

Russia's barbaric invasion of Ukraine is the conceptual theme of Raymond's current works. Everyday objects are placed in a different context in hope that the viewer thinks about the violence in the world in current times. Raymond supports the resistance against senseless violence and the delusions of an authoritarian Kremlin madman, the destruction of the culture, and the continued suffering, of the Ukrainian people.

In his paintings, Raymond focusses on abstract works. Painted intuitively, without a preconceived idea, a fascinating field of tension is created. The overall compositions demonstrate a refined sense of color and contrast in a lyrical abstract style building on the expressionist art movements after 1945. Other works demonstrate a geometric abstraction in which the composition is built up by juxtaposing colorful, powerful and contrasting surfaces.
