Begun as pure abstract, this painting began life focusing on movement, vibrant colour and energy. Incorporating many layers of acrylic paint, pencil, spray paint, and oil pastel, this artwork has several layers which are added using brushes, spatulas, and layers and finished with several layers of gloss UV varnish, and two layers of satin UV varnish. As a result the finish is very textured but smooth to the touch.
Incorporating rich texture, there is a blend of relief, layers of paint, and intricate scratching techniques using scrapers, screwdrivers and other tools, to unveil hidden depths within the artwork.
Somewhere in the painting of it, the metaphor of "Trust Fall" began to emerge.
This painting is the visual interpretation of the act of trust - in oneself, in others, and in the universe. The central figure appears suspended in mid-air, as if in the midst of a fall, exemplifying the act of letting go and entrusting oneself to the unknown. Emotional nuances are conveyed through a blend of subtle hues and expressive brushstrokes, drawing the viewer into the intense atmosphere of the scene.
This expressive piece evokes a sense of movement and fluidity through the use of organic forms and gentle gradients. It mirrors the delicate dance of emotions that occur during moments of trust and surrender, where vulnerability coexists with strength.
