Product description
Ink on paper.
In this work, the artist presents two images where silhouettes of trees stand against contrasting backgrounds, utilizing ink with a mastery that captures the delicate balance between light and dark. The branches, rendered in bold black lines, weave intricate patterns across the composition, each branch stretching and intertwining in a display of organic geometry.
The artist’s skill with ink is evident in the careful balance of negative and positive space, as well as the intricate detailing of the tree forms. By manipulating the fluidity and intensity of the ink, the artist evokes the tranquility of nature while simultaneously hinting at its mysterious, darker undertones. Each tree appears rooted yet reaching, inviting the viewer to explore the interplay between presence and absence within the landscape.

Eechaut, a wealthy man for whom the sale of his works was impossible, even within his own family. He jealously guarded his production, hence the lack of information and the lack of sales results for his work.
