A series of compositions that I have painted in acrylic on paper. With these pictures, I wanted to create a "color space" that reminds the viewer of a situation or a feeling and brings these back to life. I deliberately avoided any figurative representation. The memory should be awakened with the help of the colors and structures. I painted this work with artists' acrylic paints (Amsterdam and Lucascryl) on acid-free and non-ageing paper.

Biography
Helge Hensel, born in Frankfurt am Main / Germany.
*Passionate painter and style pluralist.
"The use of colours - the reduction of the subject to the point of fragmentation and the concentration of expression are my goals." "Images can be experienced directly through the eye. Colors, shapes, intensity, representation and composition - everything plays a role in expressing the artist's message."
Helge Hensel is a contemporary German artist. In the course of his artistic career he developed his painting to current expressive and abstract works. His preferred painting techniques are oil, acrylic and egg tempera. He has ambitiously deepened his technical skills, primarily through self-study and participation in nude drawing, drawing and free studio courses.
Exhibitions and participation in exhibitions in Germany, United Kingdom and France. His paintings are in private collections in Argentina, USA, Great Britain, Spain, France and Germany. After living in Spain for several years, Helge Hensel now lives in the department Lot-et-Garonne in France.
