Original artwork description:
Medium: Mixed media (acrylics, oil, cold wax) on paper, mounted on stretched canvas
Dimensions: 12 x 12 inches
Year of completion: 2023
Artist’s signature in the back, with monogram in the front. Ships unmatted and unframed. Certificate of authenticity included.
The works in the “Rites” series explore the concept of transmutation and the beauty of imperfection. The idea of order and purity is replaced by the exploration of the frailty of being human, but also its capability of regeneration and reconstruction. The pieces are deliberately maculated with tears, cuts, and scrapes of paint, and sanded down to create holes and crevices, thus creating more tactile spots with materials like gesso, cold wax, and paper. The textures and flaws that emerge from that process are reworked or enhanced, creating new avenues of dialogue with the work.
Materials used:
oil paints, acrylic paints, cold wax, paper
