Industrial Zen series, #7 Painting by Sabine French

Painting: Gesso, Chalk Paint, Acrylic on Canvas.

The metal wire sewn to the canvas is from a collection of "found wire" I've accrued over the years. Randomly shaped by outside forces, these pieces remind me of metal versions of Zen "Enso" drawings, which are designed to capture a moment and celebrate the beauty of imperfection. This series was named for its mix of metal wire, the "Enso" effect, and its soothing palette.
