A geometric painting of interlocking triangles and diamonds in crimson, teal, cobalt blue and luminous orange-gold, flecked all over with black spatter, the whole tessellation dissolving into solid black across the lower third of the canvas.

Room 11 · Hard-Edge

Compline

Triangles lit like a window, and the dark coming up from the bottom edge to take them — the last office of the day.

Hangs in Hard-Edge, room 11 of 14: A turn away from the pour — flat fields and hard edges, primary colour set down plainly, geometry without the drip. And, latterly, geometry that is lit rather than flat: the same angular grammar worked over until the shapes hold light and lose it.
