The Castle (Fictions Betwix & Between), 2025
Encaustic with oil pigment on birch panel board, framed
Description
The Castle is part of the series called Betwix & Between. The work was in the show Stratum at the Art Spring Gallery on Salt Spring Island in June & July 2026 The bright and jarring colours are strangely lyrical and childlike. The suggestion of perspectival depth is impossible to read, pushing in and out, creating a sense of both euphoria and unease; a potential opening into something else and an entrapment into possible chaos. Through the push and pull of shape, colour, composition and texture, these new paintings evoke impossible spaces; mazes without entrances or exits; abstract structures with the emotional charge of the memory and feeling of things observed.
