GiNO BELASSEN
PHOENIX | BECAUSE YES™
PHOENIX | BECAUSE YES™
cv/statement
b. 1994. phoenix, az.
— lives/works in phoenix.
belassen’s work derives from an affinity with minimalism and abstraction, echoing a process he refers to as subtle over sound. this idea references the physically intensive layering process involved in his work, while also hinting at his internal desire to simply communicate a story, thought or feeling. deceptive in their simplicity, his paintings convey depths of meaning through playfully handwritten, oft-cryptic words, and abstract imagery scratched through a drying surface, revealing a glimpse into the chaos that lives inside. they reflect the duality of the human condition, marking moments in his personal life that only he can fully comprehend.
his works are in private collections across europe, the united states, mexico, the uk, asia, and australia.
