About Equipoise 2

The allure of deep pink, a colour that evokes feelings of pure joy dominates the canvas in this enigmatic abstract painting by Ivo Stoyanov. The Canadian artist has become internationally recognized for his richly layered geometric compositions inspired by nature’s colours, form and textures. In this piece, expressive and textured rectangular pink shapes play against a neutral backdrop of spontaneous black marks and stains. ‘Equipoise’ means equilibrium. One of a series.

“Colour is related to the shape and is raw and vibrates. The space exists to provoke and communicate pure exploration of the senses.” Ivo Stoyanov

“A painter such as Stoyanov is so captivating because he is producing something dramatically different: Mindscapes. Mindscapes which are nonetheless tangible and visceral evidence of our physical existence in space and time.”
Donald Bracket, Art Critic
