This work, titled *Flight*, by Anton Michielse, immerses the viewer in a striking interplay of textures and shapes, where the artist’s mastery of industrial materials—panslag, cement, plaster, and black sand—takes center stage. The composition is anchored by a central, massive structure that evokes the layered complexity of architectural or geological formations. Its earthy, subdued palette of greys and muted tones enhances the raw, elemental character of the work, while darker, saturated shades bring depth and drama to the overall composition.Michielse’s innovative technique showcases his remarkable ability to manipulate material. The rough, layered construction lends a palpable, tactile quality to the piece, encouraging closer observation. This textural richness creates a profound visual depth, where the overlapping forms appear almost alive, narrating a story of movement, tension, and release. The title, *Flight*, is echoed in the dynamic contrasts between light and shadow, which heighten the work’s expressive power and suggest the soaring energy of ascension or escape.A testament to Michielse’s engagement with material painting, *Flight* shares affinities with the work of both Dutch and international artists who similarly pushed the boundaries of texture and form. with its robust physicality and evocative depth, this work encapsulates Michielse’s unique approach, blending a sculptural sensibility with the poetic possibilities of abstraction.
