In Van Hanos’ work, one encounters both the discursive impact of conceptual art and the sensorial pleasures that painting extends. Hanos makes exhaustive use of the malleable structure of paint to stretch between interior sites of thinking and exterior sites of observation. The stylistic variance across his work captures a reality of irreconcilable perceptual experiences and resonates with the neuroplasticity that gives rise to his ever-evolving ideas around painting.
