Abstract espressoism

Not much more to say this week but trying to get inspired by abstract art.

Inspirations updated here, when discovered

Maarten Rots (Aalten, 1982) is a Dutch artist working with photography as a medium. His photographs reveal abstract qualities that can be found in everyday life, often with architecture as a prominent ingredient and a strong focus on composition, texture and color.

Rut Bryk (1916, in Stockholm – 1999, in Helsinki) was a Finnish ceramist. She is considered a key reformer of modern Finnish ceramic art. In the 1960s Bryk's built large-scale ceramic mosaics meant for public spaces made on individual small tiles. Her previously narrative and figurative subject matter was replaced by geometrical abstraction. She made especially complex compositions, that make use of the three-dimensional nature of tiles and changes in glaze to create patterns with shadow, light and reflection.
