ABOUT THE ARTWORK

In this radiant composition, the artist orchestrates a symphony of warmth through geometry and gradation. A square within squares pulses outward from a fiery core—where deep crimson and vermilion meet—slowly diffusing into golden amber and pale buttery tones at the edge. The painting reads like a contained blaze, meticulously balanced between structure and saturation.

The use of concentric rectangles not only introduces rhythm but also directs the viewer’s eye inward, toward a visual and emotional climax. Unlike explosive color field works, this piece simmers with control. The horizontal band of intense red slicing through the center acts as a visual fulcrum, anchoring the work while suggesting an inner horizon or a threshold of intensity.

Here, color is time—shifting from high noon to late afternoon, from heat to afterglow. Despite its minimal formal vocabulary, the piece generates a visceral impact, offering a sensory experience that feels at once cerebral and bodily. It’s a painting that doesn’t demand attention but holds it with quiet power, like a long breath held just before release.
