About the role of white in my paintings

The white canvas plays a role in several paintings. In the painting with the poppies the landscape
is no longer the normal illusion of a landscape. Putting it on a white field it becomes a flat symbol.
The white also attacks the image. This culminates in the paintings with the buttercups.
These landscapes are totally scattered into little pieces.
