Ocean Surface #15 explores points of tension, pulling between abstraction and representation, gestural marks and smooth blended forms, monochromatic palette and the vibrant coloured ground. Paused in the moment before blending obliterates form and passes into abstraction, it lingers on the edge of representation. This moment of tension, connects to the immersive experience one feels by the sea, where forms, distance and scale can be difficult to judge and light and atmosphere is all one can see.
