Schoggi Painting - an abstract-expressionist polyptych painting by Alexander Borissov
|
|
|
|
|
What is Schoggi. Schoggi Painting is a large polyptych containing 12,345 pieces or tiles. Each tile is a miniature painting of c. 5 x 5 cm. - an artwork in its own right, numbered and signed at the back by the artist. The whole painting is 4 meters wide by 7.7 meters long, and it took Alexander Borissov over 9 months to complete.
How it bagan. Schoggi Painting was painted on a sustainable material. The company CWS-boco has sponsored 100 recycled cotton hand towel rolls for Alexander's art project.
After painting on decommissioned CWS rolls for several years in different countries around the World creating a Long painting which is now over 2000 meters long, a new format of the "shared art" has emerged and the grand "Schoggi Painting" was born.
Unique technique. The Schioggi Painting is made with the unique action painting technique invented by Alexander Borissov and developed during the years of artistic experimentation. The combination of the intention with chance makes the painting structured and spontaneous at the same time. The result is a magnificent dynamic pattern of vivid colours and shapes fascinating at macro as well as micro perspective.
