- Collapse in Progress
Original artwork description
A dense, high-energy abstract where form feels like it’s breaking under pressure. The composition is anchored by a clash of dark and light masses black and deep green pushing against whites, creams, and bursts of raw color.
At the center, thick, gestural strokes in white, yellow, and muted red collide and smear, creating a sense of movement and impact rather than structure. On the right, a heavy red block and dark vertical form act like a counterweight, pulling the composition downward, while the left side dissolves into softer, scratched textures and pale layers.
The surface is aggressively worked scraped, dragged, and layered—so the painting reads as built and destroyed at the same time. Lines appear, disappear, and re-emerge beneath paint, suggesting something underlying that resists full clarity.
Overall, it feels like a moment of tension captured mid-collapse a balance that holds, but only barely.
