Reinoud van Vught’s artistic attitude is centred on the craft of painting pur sang. He cares as deeply about the process of using the various painting materials and techniques and the underlying material he chooses to work on as he does about the ultimate result. The outcome, which depends on chance as well as on the painter’s resolute intervention, is never a foregone conclusion. For example, the results of the drying process of certain areas of paint and their interaction with other colours and materials in the painting may greatly contribute to the following steps towards the completion of the work. He is guided by nature as the core concept of germination, growth and death, and the line between abstract and figurative ceases to exist in the process. The shapes in his oeuvre are often reminiscent of floral or plant motifs, but essentially they go beyond this classification.
