S.VIII “BLUE SUN” (2024)
mixed media on hardboard
70cm x 100cm
abstract composition featuring 5 circles of varying size. the two largest ones are at the bottom of the frame and their diameter is equal to the width of the canvas. there are two medium-sized circles, one placed to the right, the other at the top left, whose diameters are the width of the frame divided by 1.618 (the golden ratio). the top left circle is a deep indigo, while the others are outlined in black. the smallest of the five circles follows the same principles and has a diameter that is equal to the diameter of the medium circles, divided by 1.618. The oil-painted circles sit atop an off-white background, painted onto newspaper articles relating in some way to the artist and the theme of alienation in the modern age. close-up of outlined circles close-up of blue circle and surrounding elements
