Daniel Sinsel.
Daniel Sinsel’s abstract paintings and objects evoke a multitude of past references across ages and national movements, amongst them European medieval artisanal practices, European and Latin American Modernism. Even in its most minimal manifestation Sinsel’s work emphasises the sensual. The emotional fine-tuning of tensions between materials, their origins, historical attributions and treatment lend them an ineffable appearance.
