Perspective

Everything human is leaving his face, unmasking the devastating decline of anything healthy, youthful and happy. A hundred faces of the same man fighting cancer, until his passing seven months later. Every canvas a newer version of a ruthless illness and every brushstroke an endless lament of life passing so abruptly before your eyes. Faces upon faces, until eyes become two empty sockets of wonder.

The art of Eric De Becker is absolutely experiential, based on true events and following the natural course of existence itself. Every project tells a story, becoming ultimately the clean arrangement of a bluntly selected reality, whilst the materiality of colour creates awareness of brutality and fear of the unknown.

This artist is a master creator of atmospheric unearthly faces staring right into your soul, mirroring in every rapid drawing your secret existential abyss.

About Eric De Becker

Education in Fine Arts & Advertising. Highly influenced by de Kooning, Cocteau and Twombly I am a strong follower of the "Tachism" movement (Art Informel-intuitive painting), the European answer to the American Action Painting of the 40's and 50's. I live and work in the Antwerp area, Belgium.

About the Product

A project with different and mostly distorted faces. Unmasking the subjects in a provocative and ruthless manner. Grimacing faces and the materiality of colour creates awareness of brutality, existential abysses, and the fears of existence. The works are made with a specific technique, the strokes, brushes, drawings rapidly applied onto the canvas or paper which express the dynamics borrowed from the Tachism-movement. Unframed.
