  • Depiction:
    The origin of script continues Jan Maarten Voskuil’s investigation into the structural language of painting. Composed of modular shapes in white and grey-brown tones, the work resembles abstract fragments of writing, evoking the primal moment when signs first emerged. The tension and curvature of the canvas transform the surface into a sculptural relief, blurring the line between painting and object. Here, the artist raises a question: where does the boundary between language and image begin, and how is it continually reshaped within cultural memory?
