TERRACOTTA RHYTHMS
Size: 22.7 x 30.7 inches (including frame)
Oil on canvas
A striking mid-century abstract composition characterised by geometric shapes and dynamic forms, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1957.
Although abstract in nature, the painting could suggest an architectural theme, as indicated by the overlapping arches, blocks, and angular lines that may resemble bridges, rooftops, and structures. Nevertheless, the painting invites viewers to interpret its abstract qualities through the interaction of colour and form.
The colour palette is warm and muted, dominated by shades of terracotta, salmon pink, red, and soft white, punctuated by darker accents in navy blue and deep brown. These hues create a harmonious yet vibrant contrast, evoking a sense of movement and depth.
The brushstrokes are bold and expressive, with visible texture and layering. The artist has applied paint in a manner that feels spontaneous but deliberate, emphasising the dynamic interplay between shape and colour.
This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary silver painted wood frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some losses as shown.
