Mono Series 2023 - ongoing

‘Mono’ is a colour research on ancient and new bio-based pigments and colourants. Translated on canvas Atelier LVDW is exploring the range of shades, structures and possibilities of one single colourant. Combining the colour with crushed eggshells, marble residue and biochar for waste-based natural colour tones. The studio is working on its own colour recipes for future projects. This research is translated in an ongoing collection of abstract paintings.

The research started with ‘Terre Verte’, this ancient green earth colourant is a weathering product of various rocks mined in Italy.

The studio is inspired by biophilic aspects and found out that the human eye can distinct most colour shades in the colour green. This has been the reason to start working on the Mono series. In the future the studio will be working on other biophilic colors, this full research collection can be found in the webshop.
