About the artist
Allan Bestle is a danish-born artist, living and working in Berlin, working with primary painting, sculpture and drawing.A key to Bestle's work could be expression of the action of process. He presents a manifold of substances and textures, building up layer upon layer, before attaching the surface and shredding back into the heart of the painting.
Both his paintings and sculptural work demonstrate the development of procedures integral to activating the primary qualities of the respective mediums, resulting in a manifestation that fuses matter and process.
Bestle relies on chance, speed and agility to circumvent any interference of consciousness in his process. Thus, he opens up his practice to a deeply personal expression, all the while harnessing the power associated with primal, spiritual and metaphysical concepts, which are incorporated into his works.
In his work, there is a vital link to the basic identity and endeavor of human nature: mark making the rudiments of language – but in a personal lyric and abstract form.
