Compound 2

2023
Acrylic, detergent, tea, and quartz sand on canvas
80 x 120 x 4,5 cm

Mixed media work on canvas exploring unexpected material combinations and the dialogue that arise from these. This work is a homage to the intuitive, the unexpected, and an abandonment of control. It explores what happens not just compositionally (within the artwork) but psychologically (within ourselves) when seemingly opposing elements are brought together and allowed to interact as they please—resulting in a work of art rich in clashes and contradictions yet nevertheless in complete balance. 

This work is an elaboration upon Compound (An Interlocutor) (2021).
