Abstract
The painting titled Panta Rei embodies the principles of Art informel, emphasizing spontaneous, expressive brushwork and a focus on raw materiality. Its abstract composition invites viewers to interpret the swirling forms and subtle color variations, embodying the fluidity suggested by the title, which references the ancient Greek phrase meaning "everything flows." This work exemplifies how Art informel often eschews traditional representation in favor of emotional expression and the gestural act of creation, making Panta Rei a compelling exploration of movement and change in modern art.
