Floris Van Look (1990, Antwerp) takes on the most cliché-woven medium, oil on canvas, by combining traditional painting with cartoony techniques. The pursuit of uniting exaggerated quantities of oil paint with volumes could take on interesting forms. Looking at the overlooked, his straightforward, thick and rather slow painting style may provide an answer for our loud-advertising, fast-swiping, opinion-swarming way of living.

"Why not paint faces on everything? It seems obvious, but for me it’s an excuse to make another plant painting, as I always need to paint something that I didn’t paint before."
