In 2022, Pascal VAN DER GRAAF, an artist who is good at origami and painting, decided to break through the traditional painting form by folding the canvas and hardening it with epoxy resin. He chose to apply chameleon paint, which is the product of modern technology, with the classical painting techniques to put on the colors delicately, allowing the colors to change with natural light and shadow. As the angle of viewing changes, the color of the painting also changes accordingly. The painting no longer stays on a flat surface, but becomes a three-dimensional space, forming an infinite viewing experience. After breaking the traditional painting form, Pascal also tried to create on the frame at a 90-degree angle. The bright metallic paint colors interacted with each other up and down, left and right. When being placed in the corner, it changes the energy field of the entire room.
