TABLEAU "A SHORT OF HOMECOMING, 2018" by Somsak HANUMAS (1980) Acrylic on canvas in an American frame, unsigned. Attached is its certificate of authenticity from Mr. Dominique Sibade dated May 10, 2021. Provenance: Private collection Size: 149 x 147 cm approx. Good condition Somsak Hanumas (Born 1980) Thai painter. The work becomes the point of departure in the aesthetic experience, not its completion. As a young graduate, Somsak decided to pick up his brushes and give free rein to his vocation, never to part with his art again. He has now been painting for over 18 years, using a technique he learned himself. After painting a background on canvas, Somsak adds numerous colored dots, which he scatters over the canvas in a gradient whose general idea is engraved in his mind. Then, using a finer brush, Somsak draws a series of lines superimposed on the dots, until they cover the entire canvas. This work, whose length and repetitiveness require extreme patience, suits him because it gives him time to reflect on the meaning of his painting and, further still, on the meaning of life and the passing of time. On average, a painting takes 8 to 12 weeks to complete. Somsak often says that the source of his art comes from the landscapes that have marked him. A beach in Thailand, a monsoon-beaten field, the edge of a jungle...all the while adding his own personal touch, his own vision. Somsak Hanumas' works have already won over the Whalroos Foundation in Finland, the Mikati Collection in Lebanon, the Bernard Magrez Collection in Bordeaux, the Vermeer Collection in the Netherlands and, not least, the LVMH Group, which has placed them on the walls of their boutiques.
