TOBIAS PILS – ANTIPAROS
2018-07-16Tobias Pils’ paintings and graphic works are almost not interpretable. His process of painting is formed by a planning that negates itself throughout the process of being carried out. As a result, representation flips into abstraction, figurativeness turns into composition. Pils’ work creates an uncanniness of interpretation and challenges the notion of subjectivity in painting: His way of painting follows intuition and is created in the context of the everyday of the painter. Yet, he never fulfills his plan but rather turns in different directions while painting. In doing so, he produces manifold forms within one painting. Nevertheless, his practice is always accompanied by technical precision and pictoral thought. In doing so, Pils creates a work whose attraction lies in the ambivalence of interpretative uncanniness, discontinuity, and technical brilliance.
