Pomegranate Wave, 2020/21

Acrylic on canvas

26 x 21cm

SOLD - This work is now held in a private collection.

The base of this work exhibits the tooth of the canvas, overlayed with areas of dripped and brushed, thick, white and marine blue paint, the white and blue mixing in some areas to create paler versions of the blue. Overlaying the entire work is a semi-translucent layer of flourescent pink, mixed in some places with soft yellow, creating a melding of pink and peach, although the bottom right section maintains elements of vivid blue and white. Lastly, there are some small drips of translucent, pastel yellow paint in the bottom section of the canvas.

This work has a psychadellic feel, reminiscent of lava lamps so popular in the 90s.

(This work has previously exhibited as part of 'Push & Pull. Stroke & Stab' at Goodspace Gallery, Chippendale. Dec 1st 2021)
