Born in 1999 in Luxembourg, Pit Riewer currently lives and works in Luxembourg. His work often focuses on moments that explore real and constructed spaces, which are created by combining industrial objects as compositional elements and other figurative elements. These moments that are both alienating and familiar are expressed through simplification and abstraction of forms and experimentation with different finishes to create depth. The partially figurative and sometimes cropped images are simplified through a process of layering and the use of many different painting materials and methods such as gouache, acrylics, watercolours, oil paints and silkscreen printing. Merging influences of expressionism and an interest in abstract expressionism, his practice explores repetition and a personal systematic approach to painting by simplifying gestures and flat spaces into coloured fields and compositional elements in the painting.
