Dish brush and freedom

“Dish Brush and Freedom” by John Konijn takes an unconventional route in his art, challenging the ordinary and transforming it into extraordinary. The titular dish brush, typically seen as a mundane household item, serves here as an unconventional tool to apply paint, providing a unique texture and depth.

Konijn utilizes this tool to capture a liberating spontaneity that transfigures the canvas. With every stroke, he creates a dance of nuances, from thick vibrant layers to delicate subtleties, calling the viewer’s attention to the unpredictability and freedom brought by the brush’s bristles. The dish brush, in its mundane practicality, becomes an agent of liberation, freeing the artist from conventional strokes and allowing for a fresh variability in his work.
