Maximilian Daniels is a Sydney‑based artist whose practice centers on the material and technical processes of abstract painting. His work explores how repeated gestures, layering, and colour mixing can construct meaning through form and surface. Drawing on the interaction of light, glass, and the studio environment, Maximilian develops paintings that investigate the relationship between colour, gesture, and materiality. Each work reveals its own construction - the visible strata of primer, pigment, and mark - producing images that balance depth with flatness. Through his refined technical approach, Maximilian encourages students to engage deeply with materials and process as a means of developing thoughtful, contemporary painting practices.
