AUGUSTE KAKI/NUDE

Auguste Herbin gave meaning to the abstract by creating similarities between shapes and colours. He specialised in geometrical painting, made up of shapes within planes of colour. The Modelage panoramic wallpanel has been reduced in scale to create AUGUSTE. The grain of this paper is beautifully matte, suggesting an artist’s canvas. Created by our design studio in gouache on modelling paste, worked using serrated knives, AUGUSTE displays surprising textures and volumes.
