Formulated as a large-scale canvas study utilizing oil wax, acrylic, and graphite, the artwork masterfully relies on raw texture and sophisticated earth layers to map out a serene architectural environment. The layout anchors an expansive multicolor field tracking fields of deep beige, ivory, and soft grey accents that flow across a heavy structural matrix, turning the textile surface into a pure landscape of quiet luxury and spatial balance.
Traces of lived experiences appear in On Hansen's works, exploring the possibilities of formal abstraction and seeking an organic experience between space and time through painting and photography. “There is no longer a single idea that explains everything, but rather an infinity of essences that give meaning to an infinity of objects. The world stops, but it also lights up.” - Albert Camus, The Myth of Sisyphus and Other Essays.

On Hansen originally from Scandinavia is the pseudonym used by the photographer Cristian Hunter, a third-generation artist who has spent most of his professional career as a photographer.
In the realm of On Hansen's artistic universe, the notion of "infrathin" takes on profound significance. Delving into the intangible spaces between tangible forms, Hansen's creations navigate the subtle, uncharted territories of human perception. Within the artworks, layers of meaning unfold, transcending the limits of conventional senses. Temporality and transformation, consistency, color, shape and surface were the constants of the visual language of On Hansen. It invites viewers to embark on a journey of introspection, where the unspoken and the unseen come to life. Art that mimics a process of decay by exposing the impact of time on the medium, creating artworks that seem to have been unearthed, Muted and physical. It is in this liminal space, where the whispers of the intangible resonate, blurring the lines between what is seen and what is felt. "Wear and age as if the work had its own geology applied as a ritual. The art process as its own theme.
