About this work
This diptych explores the evolving relationship between material, surface, and body. A layer of pigment has been scraped away, revealing traces of what lies beneath—moments of build-up and removal that mirror the passage of time and the body’s engagement in the process.
Edges and transitional zones are vital: where one hue meets another, where painting and frame converge, or where painting and space intersect, boundaries become blurred and new spatial relationships emerge. These transitional areas embody the energy of transformation—simultaneously shaping and dissolving form.
This work is from the Untitled (Becoming) series, exhibited at Brunswick Street Gallery in 2026.
