Political Hues

Categories: Painting.

Here we encounter attempts to deliver unadulterated colour, which is than interrupted by its pre-printed cotton ground. An angular battle ensues for the possession of the non-angular, non-generic oval format. Positive and negative spaces battle, the organic and the non-organic, this binary code seeks to forge an aesthetic existence.Formalism seeks to imitate to understand the nature of our universe, a prerequisite to ecological, social, and political engagement, healing.
