Abstract Art - 4 Ways To Decorate A Large, Blank Wall



Abstract art and home decorations share a lot of common ground. This is especially true in this day and age where architectural minimalism blends seamlessly with abstract paintings. Together they create exquisite works of art that have a transcendental quality.

Fortunately, we get to see quite a lot of these works. Thanks to an ever-growing population, more and more people are either building houses, apartments or renting. While each property comes with its own decorating challenges, nothing intimidates people like a large, blank wall.

4 Ways To Decorate A Large, Blank Wall Using Abstract Art
Large, blank walls simply beg for you to use your imagination. Should you cover them with furniture? Hang some art? What if you leave them like that? With the use of abstract art, you will come to realize that a big, windowless wall is not something to fear, but a wonderful canvas for great décor ideas!

What's great about abstract art is its never-ending versatility. Abstract art is, by definition, a type of art that does not attempt to recreate the visual reality with accuracy. Instead, it uses shapes, colors, forms, and gestural marks. It's not about ensuring perfect copies of real life. It's about the process of creation and the atmosphere it creates through its aesthetic. This is exactly why abstract art is the perfect approach for a blank wall.

1) Oversized abstract wall art:
There are more and more people that finally turn to oversized wall art to fill up their rooms. It's beautiful, it's convenient and it's simple. You don't have to waste too much time thinking about all the different home décor accessories needed to fill up a wall. All you need to do is find a piece of oversized abstract wall art and you're done.
Of course, this is by no means a walk in the park. Abstract art abounds in diversity, so there are a lot of aspects to think about: textures, colors, and size are important factors to consider before purchasing any piece! Simply scan the market and see what speaks to you. You'll know it when you find it!

2) Abstract patterned wallpapers:
There is something so classic and timeless about abstract patterned wallpapers that it's hard to put into words. Since abstract art made its debut over a century ago, there a lot of patterns to choose from. Take the popularity of Pollock's works. Indeed, Pollock's works can transform any house into an art museum.

Of course, you can go a tad subtler by choosing abstract pastels. Riverview in Pink Oil by Wolf Khan is another beautiful work of art that would raise the aesthetic of your home tenfold!

3) Reclaimed wood:
However, you don't have to limit yourself to the masters of abstract art. There are a lot of hidden gems by contemporary artists that can work just as well. Instead of paintings, imagine using abstract sculptures.

Adding reclaimed rustic wood on the wall would really warm up the room and give it a very attractive “cabin-in-the-woods-meets-living-room” aesthetic. Simply use your inner artist or hire someone to create an abstract wood sculpture for your blank wall. Abstract art is about breaking down and emphasizing the schematics of our objective reality. You will be in awe of the beauty of abstract sculptures that use natural materials!

4) Color-blocks:
If you're looking for a modern feel, then using a color-blocked pattern on your wall can really make a difference! You can either choose a soft, pastel color palette for a delicate look or a more intense one if you want drama! The only issue you might come across is the actual colors and direction of the blocks. However, since the theme is abstract art, there's no way to go wrong!

TIP: Paint the blocks horizontally if the room is too tall and vertically if the room is too short. Also, make sure the blocks are painted in complementary colors.
All things considered, there are many creative ways you can fill up an empty wall using abstract art. So many that there is no point in being intimidated by a large, blank wall. Hopefully, our 4 suggestions for decorating it using abstract art will make it easier for you to turn it into something absolutely stunning.
