The Shape of Yes, 30×40 in, 2025
The Shape of Yes organizes considerable visual energy into a coherent vertical structure. A cool grey field spans the background, while blue anchors the lower left and a dense accumulation of charcoal, deep red, and ochre settles into the lower right, forming the tonal weight from which the composition rises. From that base, a central column of red and yellow moves upward in parallel, with pink threading between them, three distinct colours that intertwine without losing their individual presence. The detail photographs reveal fine linear scratches through the paint surface, adding a layer of mark-making that rewards close attention. The work evokes controlled momentum, a sense of something resolved rather than imposed. It would sit well in a collection that values gestural abstraction with structural discipline.
The Shape of Yes appeared on the cover of Visual Art Journal, August 2025.
From the Wild collection, 2025.
From the artist's journal:
"There is a sense of alignment, of all of my senses beginning to dance together activating an energy of agreement. This is so vastly different from the times a yes is dragged from my lips. This is power in my steps, stability in my stance, music in my voice. Full bodied. Yes."
