Tyranny
Mixed Media Acrylic on Canvas
900 x 1500mm
Deep cuts tell stories of motion moving through the canvas, a black entropy envelops the frame from the top down. Beneath, the cool water runs thin providing areas of delicacy and beauty. Water leaves a series of unpredictable pathways, a serendipitous moment as the drying pigment fills the perimeter, leaving a gradient of details in its travels. Tyranny was to rain forward. The arbitrary use of its power concerns the viewer, leaving only to accept what has been done. The stark contrast between hard and soft creates an internal geometry dividing thick from thin.
The decision to place the deep medium above the watered down acrylic creates a hierarchy, defining the power on top, the rest can only fight back from their hindered state. The viewer is left to embrace what they see in front of them, with the question asked directly, “What do you make of the journey seen before you?”
