Michael Gromm’s work skilfully balances sweeping gestural marks and tightly cropped rendered forms through layers of fluid paint pours and controlled patterns, often creating more questions than giving answers. Unapologetically diametrical in his approach, the artist explains,

“My work is process driven, combining multiple techniques and visual ideals. Sometimes working backwards as well as forwards, hiding truths and revealing lies”.

Gloriously playful, Gromm’s superlative compositions explode with luxuriant details and charisma. This combination of free-form with more defined shapes and elements traverses the boundary of abstraction and figuration, creating complex images that “delve into the unknown and form unplanned and unending puzzles” – Michael Gromm.
