In 2019, he couldn’t help but answer the inner call to his graffiti roots. Therefore, he opened up to new surfaces, new materials and tools to start a new creative chapter. Collaborating with Kolly Gallery he created his series Traces. His style can be described as post graffiti and abstract painting. But it is above all his personal energy that synthesizes his experiences as well as his history. It is a story of influences, traces left behind or even erased by time. Painting his canvas feels like a field of experimentation, of freedom, which opens up to the infinite possibilities.
In the series Traces Jorgen portrays feelings of freedom of gestures, associated with the memory of walls and his passion for graffiti culture. It allows a certain subjection of the walls, which turns into greater inspiration for it. Each tool calls for a gesture, each gesture is amplified according to the dimension of the support. Each support is a new adventure.
“For the past two years, this painting has imposed itself, taken over and often has the last word.”
Jorgen 2021.
Two years ago, he started painting for the sake of painting. He choose to let the creativity speak through a new blaze – Jorgen Andreas 76. The graffiti energy he has suppressed and rejected for so many years, he can recognize anew, while apprehending it in a different way, through a broader horizon. With a versatile vision and long-lasting experience, the artists opens himself up to different media, dozens of walls, canvases, papers, volumes, digital art and many other projects.
The memory of these gestures, for some codified and for others not premeditated, is finally what remains visible, a trace of the invisible, a kind of memory of wall, of Jorgen’s experiences.
