// Matias Faldbakken’s Hilux Variations 11 from 2014 is a unique monotype that combines bold gestural abstraction with a limited color palette. The composition features expressive, sweeping brushstrokes in black and white against a light blue background, creating a sense of movement and intensity. The layered strokes, alternating between broad, opaque sections and translucent washes, evoke a raw and textured aesthetic that suggests both aggression and restraint. Faldbakken’s work in this piece showcases his exploration of materiality and form, emphasizing the physical act of painting. The monochromatic elements against the blue backdrop draw the viewer’s eye, engaging them in the energy and spontaneity of the artistic process.

What is appropriation?
Appropriation in art involves using pre-existing images or objects with little or no modification. This technique has played a significant role across various art forms, including visual arts, music, performance, and literature. In visual arts, appropriation refers to the practice of adopting, sampling, recycling, or borrowing elements—or even entire forms—of existing visual culture, integrating them into new works to create meaning or critique.
