'Bleed Godspeed', no. 8838 - 2024 ©
(60 x 90 cm. / 23.6 x 35.4 in.)
A luminous expanse of pale white and blue is pierced by a vertical surge of violet, dissolving into shadow at the top. The intrusion feels sudden, almost violent, yet it carries a spectral grace. A faint circular mark drifts above, like a distant light or celestial witness. The composition stages velocity and rupture, “bleed” as both flow and wound, “godspeed” as blessing and departure. Violet, with its historic ties to both spirituality and mourning, anchors the work in tension: a chromatic meditation on urgency, fragility, and transcendence.
— It starts with a moment in time—this elusive instant unrecognizable, unstaged, and, in most cases, discarded as a mistake, never to see the light of day again..
Mixed media: oil and acrylics on 4 mm crystal clear diamond glass. Hahnemühle Fine Art Giclée archival paper, expired 35 mm photographic film printed with 10-color pigment inks, mounted behind glass.
In the search for finding beauty in an analog moment caught on expired analog film, processed with light as the medium, capturing color through various methods.
Abstract colorscape artwork is made of processed expired photographic analog film exposed to light and captures color through various experimental methods. The artwork is printed with exceptional color depths on archival-quality, hand-picked Hahnemühle Fine Art Giclée paper, mounted behind 4 mm Crystal Clear diamond glass with exclusive minimalist round polished edges, ensuring durability and longevity for centuries.
The final process captures new and previously unseen moments within the intricate new layers of paint that are carefully applied to the glass, ultimately adding multiple depths of moments in time to the overall composition of the artwork. An abstract piece using various materials, light, and colors influenced by Existentialism captures a moment in the medium's evolution.
