Building upon the artist's intimate paper studies "Symbiotic String" from 2024, these modern works expand the original compositions into commanding presence while maintaining their essential serenity.
Minimal organic forms grow into each other with a simplicity similar to the soft shapes found in the natural world, like clustering vines and tree branches. A striking composition of two cool neutral hues is carefully formed into sinuous, soft shapes that echo the gentle contours of nature. These lines, with their graceful curves and fluid movement, entwine each other in a balanced flow of form, suggesting a harmonious relationship between opposing values of dark and light. Their intertwining asymmetric shapes create a sense of unity and cohesion, symbolizing the interconnectedness of life and the quiet beauty found in symbiotic relationships. The larger format amplifies the meditative quality of the original studies, inviting viewers into an immersive experience of interconnected forms.
Each canvas is signed on the back and arrives ready to hang on stretched canvas. The solid wood frame pictured is not included.
