Remnants #1 - Original Painting
This painting feels like a collision of chaos and clarity, suspended in a raw, textured field of white. A jagged swath of deep black cuts horizontally across the canvas, like a scar or fault line, anchoring the energy around it. Scribbled graphite-like marks scrawl over and under the surface, restless and searching, while bursts of color: burnt orange, teal, magenta, and ochre flare up against the stark backdrop.
The layering of textures, from scratched lines to thick, tactile ridges, suggests both construction and erosion, something built up and broken down at the same time. The work carries a sense of fragments or “Remnants” left behind, evidence of movement, memory, or thought caught mid-process.
It’s a piece that thrives in tension: order and disorder, erasure and assertion, silence and noise, all vibrating together on the surface.
