Slash Paintings

Slash paintings, also known as slash or streak paintings, are a form of abstract art characterized by dynamic, sweeping strokes often created by dragging a tool, such as a brush or trowel, across the surface. This technique emphasizes movement, energy, and the physical act of painting, resulting in bold lines or textured surfaces that convey emotion and immediacy. Artists use this method to explore the spontaneity of their gestures, creating works that are expressive and visually engaging, often emphasizing the materiality and process of creation.
