MIKAEL’S ART STYLE

ABSTRACT VS GEOMETRIC

Mikael B masters two distinct art styles – abstract expressionism and geometric abstraction.
Navigating the tension between two contrasting approaches to the canvas, spontaneity and precision, he is forging a language that exists in a space where the untamed meets the meticulously composed, yielding compositions that are both visceral and architectonic.

ABSTRACT EXPRESSIONISM:
UNSCRIPTED ENERGY

Mikael’s abstract compositions emerge instinctively, often without preliminary sketches. Gestural brush strokes, spontaneous movements, and raw emotion dictate the process, resulting in dynamic layers of color and form.
Like Gerhard Richter and Albert Oehlen, Mikael embraces the unpredictable, allowing each composition to unfold organically—balancing control and surrender in a continuous act of reinvention.

GEOMETRIC ABSTRACTION:
PRECISION & ORDER

Conversely, Mikael’s geometric works are meticulously orchestrated. Every composition begins with detailed preparatory drawings and full-color digital studies, ensuring absolute control over structure, composition and end result. The execution is akin to architectural design, where every element finds its exact place. Resulting in unique geometric compositions and landscapes with references to Salvador Dalí, Peter Saul and Kay Sage.

THE BALANCE

WHERE FREEDOM
MEETS STRUCTURE

Mikael B’s art practice thrives in the interplay of these two worlds. Intuition and calculation—his canvases inhabit the space where these forces intersect. Contrasts define his aesthetic: warm versus cool, soft versus sharp, light versus dark. This tension isn’t conflict but harmony, a reflection of his belief that art is most powerful when it defies traditions, thriving in a constant state of evolution.
