Carried by light (2026)Acrylic painting by Francesca Borgo

80 x 80 x 4cm (unframed) / 80 x 80cm (actual image size)

£1,757.52

This circular painting evokes an atmospheric landscape where water, air, and mountain forms seem to drift into one another. Within a restrained monochrome palette of greys and whites, soft ridges and swirling textures emerge like waves moving through mist or distant peaks dissolving into cloud. Light and shadow glide across the surface, creating subtle depth and movement.

Encapsulated within the circle — a shape without corners — the composition becomes a continuous horizon where forms shift and settle in quiet balance. The absence of color draws attention to texture and form, allowing the landscape to unfold slowly before the viewer.

The drifting terrain echoes both the rhythms of nature and the shifting landscapes of human life, where moments of tension, release, and transformation appear and dissolve over time.
