About The Artwork

This painting is one of my latest. There is a hidden depth in the piece: on the surface, the viewer dwells on that pale pink & rippling texture, but ones eye wanders into the depth at the background, what can one see? Roots, leaves, trees in water? The ambiguity hangs over the piece, the uncertainty of texture. The darkness of the bottom panel also allows the eye to wander in & out, like a deep dark forest. The overall reds & pink tones makes the piece warm & unusual, with a monumentality in its texture. A conversation starter. The painting needs no frame, cords or wires. It is ready to hang on any wall. I would advise two wall hooks/nails & hang directly onto those.

"What Sweeney has vividly evoked is its maker's desire to create a mark in public, to make something imperfect and thus unique. In this and many of these works, Sweeney's aesthetic is a raw one of the scrap yard, and at moments - the gutter" Jean Tormey, Curator, Tate Modern, London. Tracy Sweeney is an artist from Ireland. Her dynamic paintings have won major awards including the prestigious Pollock Krasner Award in New York. Sweeney's numerous international exhibitions have been met with much acclaim, particularly her exhibition "Station/Wall" in Grafiska Sallskapet Galleri, Stockholm; her work in the Paris Biennale 109 and a major group exhibition; "˜Grafiktriennalen', opened by King Carl Gustaf of Sweden in Stockholm, Sweden. Tracy Sweeney's paintings are held in major collections, galleries & museums throughout Ireland, Europe & the US. She is represented by Grafiska Sallskapet, & Galleri Ingela S, Stockholm, Sweden.
