Pot de peinture

Yuri Kuper creates this used paint can, a seemingly vulgar subject, using the highly distinguished artistic process of tapestry. The object undoubtedly comes from his artist's studio, which is a constant in Kuper's work. Through the interplay of light and shadow, the sot stands out from the background, even though both have received paint stains and are imbued with the same nuances of color.
