Oil and Acrylic on Canvas
70 x 50cm

These pieces look at the tension that occurs between elements. The eye is drawn to the distinct line across the canvas where colour and form are pushed against each other, as if from different vistas. Water and air pull together at the submerging horizon. The use of negative space adds to a sense of blurringding between plains. Quick blended brushstrokes in oil capture the feeling of dancing fractures where light succeeds and fails to permeate.
These pieces look at the tension that occurs between elements. They were heavily influenced by the experience of swimming in a kelp forest during the equinox in Co. Donegal. The eye is drawn to the distinct line across the canvas where colour and form are pushed against each other, as if from different vistas. Water and air pull together at the submerging horizon. The use of negative space adds to a sense of blurring between plains. Quick-blended brushstrokes in oil capture the feeling of dancing fractures where light succeeds and fails to permeate.
