Rose Garden Alive To The Starry Skies At Night (2025) is a high-intensity abstract field organised as a dense network of circular, eye-like forms bound within an erratic lattice of white linear scaffolding.
Concentric rings in hot pinks, reds, and whites pulse across a saturated red ground, their dark centres anchoring the image while surrounding dot matrices and gold passages flicker like coded signals or distant stars. The composition oscillates between multiple readings—a schematic map, a cellular system, or a crowded nocturnal field—while the suggestion of a distorted upright figure intermittently emerges before dissolving back into the network. Electric blues and sharp chrome yellows puncture the surface, heightening its spatial instability and chromatic tension. The result is a charged, hypnotic work that feels both animated and surveillant, as if the painting itself is looking back.
Have been playing around with a virtual gallery space for showing some of the art I’ve been working on over the last few years. It’s an interesting process to curate and hang work in a space, albeit imaginary, that gives a sense of scale. It’s also nice to see work grouped together from various angles and get a feel for the body overall. I’m thinking this might be a good way of highlighting individual works on the blog and then swapping things around in the gallery space every once in a while to keep things fresh for visitors.
Welcome then to what I hope you’ll consider a studio visit of sorts and lets see how this goes.
