Raku Nacar

Nature conceals hidden geometric patterns that can be manifested in different forms, from tree branches and mountains to our circulatory system, coastlines, and snowflakes. These structures reveal a captivating dance of repetitions and variations that we can find in fractals.

The Raku series, which means “tranquility” in Japanese, invites us to delve into the fascinating fractal world generated by simple rules linked to mathematical algorithms, on an infinite journey of exploration. The surfaces of Raku paintings display small fissures that make every piece unique.

Raku also embraces the concept of metamorphosis. On the cracked surface we can see signs of tension and movement inherent to transformation. As an eggshell on the verge of breaking, the painting is waiting for the opportune moment to reveal its vulnerability. Like glass, fragility exists in an endless state, it breaks only to be reborn. Each work in Raku is a statement to the beauty in impermanence and evolution.
