Goldberg
30 × 24. Acrylic on canvas. Gallery Wrap.
This painting embraces a structured yet still abstract style that leans toward a cubist or stained-glass aesthetic. The composition is a vibrant mosaic of interlocking shapes, with bold, organic forms outlined in thick black lines that create a segmented, almost puzzle-like effect. The shapes are irregular and curvilinear, with some resembling amoebic forms, while others have sharper, more angular edges, giving the painting a dynamic sense of movement and rhythm.
The colour palette is strikingly varied and saturated, featuring a wide range of hues—deep blues, rich reds, bright yellows, greens, oranges, and purples, alongside more muted tones like grays, browns, and beiges. Each shape is filled with a solid colour, creating a stark contrast between adjacent forms and enhancing the visual impact of the black outlines. The use of colour is balanced, with no single hue dominating, which keeps the viewer’s eye moving across the canvas, exploring the interplay of shapes and tones.
The forms seem to float and overlap in a shallow space, creating a sense of depth through their arrangement rather than through shading or perspective. While the painting is abstract, some shapes might suggest simplified, stylized figures or objects—perhaps a hint of a face, a bird, or a plant—but these interpretations remain open-ended, allowing the viewer to project their own meaning onto the work.
Overall, this painting feels playful and energetic, with its bold colours and rhythmic shapes evoking a sense of joy and creativity. It’s reminiscent of the works of artists like Joan Miró or Wassily Kandinsky, who often blended abstraction with symbolic, organic shapes.
