In his new exhibition MOSH PIT at KRONENBERG MAIS WRIGHT, Val Wens presents a series of paintings informed by his deep interest in Wiener Aktionismus, Arte Povera and Abstract Expressionism. The body of work by Jakarta-born, Castlemaine-based artist sees the notion of erasure as fundamental, with the deliberate manipulations of the canvas meaningful in their expression of emotion.
