Bold, architectural and full of energy, Colour Under Tension is a wide-format abstract artwork built from luminous blocks of colour—teal, cobalt, emerald, magenta and citrus tones—held together by fine linear divisions like a stitched grid. The composition feels both structured and spontaneous: crisp edges and geometric sections meet fluid drips, subtle scratches, and transparent layers that reveal what sits beneath. It’s vibrant, modern, and impossible to ignore.
This piece is created in Iefje Boissevain’s signature process. The artwork is developed first on wooden panels, layering colour and detail by hand to build depth and movement. The final step transforms it: several coats of high-gloss, UV-resistant resin are poured over the surface, creating a crystal-clear, glass-like finish that intensifies the colours and magnifies the intricate textures within the work.
With its long horizontal format, this artwork is ideal above a sofa, console, dining setting or bedhead—perfect for collectors who love contemporary colour, design-driven interiors, and statement art that lifts a room instantly.
