Pol is an expressive painter, living and working in Belgium. Inspired by Mattisse, his colour pallet is vivid and bold and his work offers hints of landscapes both urban and rural.
This aside, Pol warns, "Do not succumb to the temptation to find a figurative subject but let yourself be carried away by the forms and the colors!" Colour is the most important element in his work, offering him the perfect vehicle with which to express his feeling of liberation; a sense that is central to his practice. Pol quotes Mattisse, "Colour is perhaps more liberating than drawing."
