Artwork Description

Please click on the last icon in the carousel to view the video.

Thor's ridge is a striking abstract landscape in shades of light beige, off white, copper, terracotta, rust and deep brown.
The video shows the metallic paint changing in the light so at some angles the dark brown looks very dark brown and at other angles and times of the day when the light hits it differently or you walk past, it will look a deep burnished bronze. the copper changes form a rich copper "penny" to a deeper rust.
