He'd been wanting to create a piece that shows the physical force of the broom swing. When you look at it you feel the energy of this movement thrust upon the material.⁠ The swing cannot be controlled, to perform it perfectly, you have to do it by surprise, a sideways⁠ thought. You can control the colour, it’s general shape, how thick/watery. But you can’t control the specifics; exactly how⁠ long, if it will glob together and crack,⁠ how much it will drip. It requires a full let go. ⁠
For him to prepare⁠ the studio takes a few hours, for his physical and mental⁠ state about two weeks, and then it happens in just a few seconds.
Acrylic on tarpaulin.

Materials used:

Acrylic, tarpaulin
