Iven Orx & Aaron Vinn, THE UNBOUND FIELD, 2023, paint on canvas, 102,4 x 110,2 x 2 in (260 x 280 x 5 cm)
THE WORK AS AN ENERGETIC STRUCTURE
CORE (2010–2025, large-scale canvas works and sculptural wooden objects) unfolds the work as an energetic structure. Orx and Vinn reveal the dynamic interaction of color, layer, and space, transforming the surface into a vibrating field in which perception and matter are both set in motion.
„In CORE, we focus on the center of form and energy. The works appear as crystallization points where color, material, and light condense and twist. For us, these are spaces composed of both stillness and tension, where the visible attains a new intensity.“

„In CORE, we explore the power of condensation that arises from the combination of material, color, and movement. The work becomes a core space where tension and stillness, light and shadow converge. For us, it reveals the essence of a pictorial moment that rests within itself while simultaneously pulsating.“
Iven Orx & Aaron Vinn
In a space, a structure of color and form unfolds, a vibrating network of layers and transitions. Orx and Vinn make invisible forces visible, exploring the energetic connections that emanate from an inner core and transforming them into pulsating structures. Their works are not static forms, but fields of transformation.

In the paintings, dense layers break apart, threaded with fleeting glazes that capture light and keep it in constant resonance. The sculptures emerge from the wood as if unfolding from an inner movement. Nothing remains fixed – condensation and dissolution, expansion and retreat occur simultaneously.

The works breathe in rhythms that lie beyond time. Their structures evoke invisible currents that permeate and connect everything. Here, chaos becomes order in motion, the fragment becomes potential. Those who engage with them feel perception expand, boundaries dissolve, and their own being become part of a larger pattern.
„For us, CORE is the experience of inner gravity in painting. The works draw the gaze in, concentrate it, and release it, as layers of color and material overlap. We perceive that the center is never static, but always remains a point of departure for movement and reflection.“

Then something happens: the surface begins to breathe, lines detach from their anchoring, forms push beyond their boundaries. What appeared as structure dissolves into a current, a flow of possibilities that sweeps into the unknown. No point remains untouched, no line sustains itself. The works of Orx and Vinn open spaces where the visible frays at its edges – and where it ends, the essential begins.
