About the Artist

R.K. Red

My work embraces the ethos of minimalism, distilling complex concepts into essential forms and colors. Each stroke, each space, is a deliberate act of simplification, inviting viewers to engage in a contemplative experience. In this pursuit, I draw inspiration from the Zen philosophy—a commitment to simplicity, balance, and the profound beauty found in the interplay of negative and positive space.
