"The idea of pink" is a luminous and tactile abstraction by Belgian artist Astrid Van den Bosch, where soft pink tones meet layered texture and expressive gesture. Executed in cold wax and acrylics on wood, the work builds a rich, physical surface that catches the light and invites the viewer close.
Van den Bosch creates mixed-media pieces that balance depth, emotion and storytelling. Her use of colour shines through every brushstroke, and in this piece the pink becomes both the subject and the mood: gentle yet confident, intimate yet expansive.
At 60 x 80 x 2.5 cm, the painting has the presence of a statement work while remaining versatile for contemporary interiors. It belongs to Van den Bosch’s “Colours” oeuvre, defined by exciting contrasts with bright streaks and colour splashes, standing for the balance she honors deeply in life.
