Acrylic on canvas
32 x 51 inches (81 x 130 cm)
Unframed. Ships rolled.
In Dreams (2025), Studio 198 presents a richly layered composition that explores rhythm, mark-making, and the connection between gesture and surface. Working in acrylic on canvas, the piece builds complexity through repetition—where each mark contributes to a larger, evolving field.
Drawing influence from Emily Kame Kngwarreye, the work embraces an intuitive, all-over approach to composition. Patterns emerge and dissolve across the surface, creating a sense of movement that feels both organic and expansive. Rather than directing the viewer, the painting invites immersion—allowing the eye to travel freely through its shifting textures and tonal variations.
At 32 x 51 inches (81 x 130 cm), the scale enhances this sense of openness. The canvas operates as a continuous field, where detail reveals itself gradually and the overall composition remains fluid and dynamic. Light interacts subtly with the surface, bringing depth to the layered application.
This is a one-off original. There are no editions.
Created for collectors who value expressive abstraction with a meditative quality, Dreams rewards sustained viewing. Its strength lies in accumulation—where simplicity of mark becomes complexity of experience.
A work of rhythm. A work of continuity.
