Musselin 3
2004
Pia Fries's *Musselin 3* (2004) is a dynamic two-panel work that combines oil paint and screenprint on panel, merging the tactile richness of impasto brushwork with the precise, graphic qualities of printmaking. Dense, swirling accumulations of pigment erupt across the surface, contrasting with flatter, patterned areas that evoke the delicate, translucent weave of muslin fabric referenced in the title. The result is a compelling dialogue between mark-making processes, drawing attention to the physical and visual properties of paint itself.
