Untitled 2016 Rose Madder I
Oil on Canvas, genuine rose madder, genuine mica.
500mm diameter round canvas on 30mm deep stretcher.
One of three works available as a triptych or individually.
$1000 NZ (International prices including shipping please see Saatchi Art)
In these three works I am exploring the nature of materials and the role they play in the nature of contemplation. I am interested in the resonance that authentic natural pigments bring to a piece. There is a depth and quality inherent in the materials I am using that allow light to penetrate and then radiate from within the surface that helps to create the experience of seeing that I am seeking. I contrast materials that have this depth with mediums that shimmer on the surface creating layers that resonate optically.
