The artist has masterfully juxtaposed the meticulousness of geometric patterns against the fervent chaos of abstract expressionism. The geometric forms serve as a testament to the human desire for order, for understanding the world through lines and angles that are precise and predictable. Yet, these forms are not alone. They share the canvas with strokes of paint that seem to move with a life of their own—bold, unrestrained, and full of emotion.
The color palette is a dialogue between the cerebral and the passionate. The blues, often associated with calm and reflection, are set ablaze by the inclusion of fiery reds, suggesting a depth of feeling that cannot be contained within the coolness of reason alone. It is a mirror to our own experiences, a reminder that life, much like art, is a balance of harmony and discord.
