I’m not a fan of the word bitter when it’s used to describe cold. I feel like bitter is too nuanced, suggests too many of the experiential layers that cold weather so often levels. Nor do I think sour would be better suited, 2017152.5 x 114cmSign in to view price

Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.

This abstract painting features a vibrant and dynamic composition of overlapping shapes and forms in a variety of warm hues. The colors range from soft pinks and yellows to bold oranges and reds, creating a visually striking and visually engaging piece. The shapes are organic and curved, with a sense of movement and fluidity throughout the canvas. The overall style is characteristic of mid-20th century abstract expressionism, with the artist employing distinctive techniques to achieve the layered and textured effects. While the subject matter is non-representational, the composition appears to suggest a sense of harmony and balance within the abstract elements. This work reflects the artist's intention to evoke emotions and promote contemplation through the use of color, form, and composition. ...

B.1985, American

Sebastian Black is a painter and sculptor who depicts colourful, fragmented and multi-layered forms that confuse the delineation between abstraction and representation. Black’s paintings are playful, satirising the art world, the stereotypically sombre eye of the critic, and the outlandish speculations made by viewers when trying to determine the meaning of an artwork. An ode to the cubism of the early 20th century, Black’s works are like the Rorschach test; some portray drooping dog’s faces that also appear like female forms if viewed in a different way. Black seeks to unpick and reimagine the notion of abstraction in order to manipulate the viewer’s relationship, both with his works and with their own perceptions. Written by Goldsmiths CCA ...
