COLORS OF THE NOISE ON CANVAS PHILIPPE HALABURDA STUDIO IN BROOKLYN, NY, USA APRIL 2019
Under the streets
About the theme of "subterranean city" I am fascinated by the network of pipes under Manhattan’s streets and avenues .
Recently, I was walking in Chelsea with a friend and saw this fantastic web of conduits, cables, and pipes on one of the streets.
From my point of view, It looks like each existing infrastructure is a challenging engineering
and coordination challenge.
I imagined the anatomy of New York through these abstract paintings inspired by the city’s subterranean complexity.
I tried to capture the essence of the city's underground complexity.
Each stroke mirrors the challenge of orchestrating this hidden dance
of infrastructure, where chaos and order meld into a harmonious
visual narrative.
These paintings unveil the anatomy of New York, not in skyscrapers and streets, but in the veins of its infrastructure.
The geometric renderings tell the story of a city knit together beneath the surface, a testament to the engineering marvels supporting the daily rhythm
of Manhattan life.
Every line and shape are a testament to the unseen efforts
that keep the metropolis pulsating.
