"Inner View" stands as a vibrant testament to my ongoing fascination with abstraction and mechanical wonders. This latest creation, a sizable 48x72-inch acrylic work on canvas, invites you to embark on an exploration of colors, shapes, and the interplay between the two.
Picture this: a central triangle dominating the canvas, its presence subdivided into a patchwork of bold, fantastic hues—green, blue, purple, orange, and black. It’s as if each section pulses with its own rhythm, telling a separate story while contributing to the whole. Within and surrounding this triangle, you’ll find circular, eye-like designs—yellow, white, and more—that introduce texture and a sense of motion that keeps the eye perpetually engaged.
As your gaze continues to wander, you'll notice the swirling patterns that animate the background, filling the canvas with energy and lending an atmosphere that almost hums with kinetic potential. It’s easy to imagine this piece as an interior look at a clock, each shape hinting at gears and cogs in perpetual motion.
The inspiration for "Inner View" roots itself in my curiosity about the inner workings of clocks—a fascination with their precise mechanics and the symphony of movement they orchestrate. Creating this piece was an exhilarating process, one that required me to envision potential movements in front of me, allowing my imagination to animate these brightly colored forms. This wasn’t simply about translating inspiration onto the canvas; it was about distilling movement and energy into a static form that nonetheless vibrates with life.
What sets "Inner View" apart in my artistic journey is this very exploration of motion within stillness. As you stand before the artwork and let your eyes traverse its bold forms, I hope you find yourself transported, even momentarily, into the intricate dance of abstract mechanics at play.
Through "Inner View," I extend an invitation to you. Let your eyes linger on the canvas. Imagine the intricate dance of timepieces, the harmonious grind of cogs working together in harmony. Perhaps you’ll uncover new perspectives, new stories woven into the rich tapestry of colors and shapes—journeys waiting to be discovered with each viewing.
