Beyond the threshold
Panel with Lime putty (also called pit lime) carrera marble powder, home-made casein paints with fresco pigments, wax | 60 x 60 cm | 2023.
Including white American frame of 67.5 x 67.5 cm for a floating effect and 1 hook system, the painting itself is 60 x 60 cm.
In the Middle Ages, the technique of fresco involved applying pigments directly onto wet lime plaster, allowing the colors to become embedded in the drying plaster. The use of casein paints on a dry fresco surface is a more modern variation, where the casein acts as a binder for the pigments and is applied after the plaster has dried, allowing for greater control over the color application and potential for modifications.
