Tibor de Nagy is pleased to present ablaze vibrations amplifying fluidity, a solo exhibition by assume vivid astro focus. This exhibition features six vibrantly hued paintings displayed on custom wallpaper (a special collaboration between AVAF and Chambord Prints). The combination of paintings and wallpaper creates an environment where a vast spectrum of colors and textures envelops the viewer.

With this body of work, AVAF explores the interplay between color as a universal language and its capacity to heal and energize. Drawing from the artist's uniquely produced palettes, a system that they have employed to produce over 1,400 color tones, the new works aim to create a tactile and emotional connection between the viewer and the work. These colors also mimic the luminosity of our daily interaction with digital screens or devices, which parallels how the artwork is conceived – digitally manifested and with the base of the composition pulled from previously produced motifs, a way of looking back to look forward.

Painting has been an important part of the AVAF's practice for the last 10 years. What distinguishes these works from previous iterations is the emergence of botanical motifs that introduce organic elements that evoke the lush vibrancy of subtropical environments, including the intricate structures of orchids. This sensorial experience is complemented by a push-pull of textural elements within each painting. These negotiations of dimensionality are made possible through the actions of building up and removing layers of the physical paper. The action of tearing away to reveal the underlayer of corrugation is coupled with various paint applications, contrasting between rough and smooth, flat and protruding.
