This contemporary artwork features a triptych of abstract paintings with a minimalist aesthetic. Each canvas is dominated by a vibrant, solid color - deep purple, soft blue, and bold orange. The simple, centered text "I'll" is the only recognizable element, creating a sense of ambiguity and inviting the viewer to interpret the meaning. The compositions emphasize the expressive power of color, painting, and typography, reflecting the artist's focus on formal and conceptual elements rather than representational imagery. This work likely explores themes of individualism, introspection, or personal choice, though the precise intention remains open to the viewer's interpretation. ...
Incorporating painting, photographic works, text pieces and installation, Alex Clarke places a sharp focus onto the network of relationships around not only the artwork but also practices of making and dissemination.
He identifies that the very reason to want to make an artwork at all can be framed by the desire to talk to one another- that both artwork and practice act as placeholders and expanded gestures of discussion or exchange. To load this most basic social mechanism with such primary value positions Clarke’s work in a vital space beyond abstraction and into real-life moments of encounter, regaining an intimacy to connection and connectivity.
