Can abstract art be representational and non-representational? With regard to Saskia Pintelon’s oeuvre who is known for chronicling, life and death and everything in between and who is known as a figurative artist the answer to this question is yes. Her work sometimes veers towards abstraction and in Pintelon’s decade-long appropriation and interpretations have made her work dissipate into something else than the pure figurative. She is often working on different series simultaneously. Smaller figurative drawings, paintings, collages and larger abstract canvases. Even these abstract paintings are representational of something.
