About Daniel Storms<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Daniel Storms<\/strong> is a Belgian-born abstract painter known for his evocative style rooted in brutalism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Daniel’s professional career meant travelling across the world, where he developed a fascination with the stark geometry and raw textures of urban landscapes; these elements continue to dominate his work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His art favours bold forms, layered textures, and a restrained, often monochromatic palette to convey the interplay between structure and chaos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Currently residing in London, Daniel draws inspiration from the city’s dynamic architectural contrasts and vibrant art scene. His paintings often evoke a sense of both resistance and decay, reflecting the tension between human ambition and the inevitability of time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMy choice to live in London several years ago has strongly influenced the themes I paint now. The ever-changing views of cities fascinate me, as does their constant destruction and rebuilding. Furthermore, I am a huge fan of 20th-<\/sup>century brutalist architecture. This lured me to the Barbican, my current home and a neighbourhood that is often depicted in my artworks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I mainly paint on canvas with acrylic paint, sometimes combined with India ink. I avoid pencils and brushes and prefer to work with tools from DIY shops. When I start painting something new, I have a very broad concept in mind that then develops into an abstract cityscape. This is how my favourite paintings came about.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
