Show description:
Watercolour is Warren Hoyano’s chosen medium because of its ability to make both dense, opaque marks and transparent, stain-like marks. Once applied to the paper, he manipulates and erodes the paint with water. This creates deliberate effects and random, found effects. The artist takes his inspiration from the ephemeral such as shadows, stains, marks on flat concrete and aleatory patterns. A further source of inspiration has been the way x-rays, ultrasound images and photographic negatives portray reality. From the world of art, Warren Hoyano have been influenced by Abstract Expressionism, East Asian ink painting and Japanese ceramics.
