Gold Fabric Dreaming Swatch Painting

The ‘Start Structure’ Series show cohesive structures derived from a myriad of angles. Each painting plays on the Gestalt idea of the whole being something other than the sum of its parts, meaning that the image exists as something different to the process of its composition. This particular painting has a multitude of layers, some of which are partly sanded back, and uses a gold interference medium so that colours shine, flatten and change depending on where the viewer is standing. The title plays on the idea of the image being part of something bigger than itself.
