This artwork is from an earlier series where the approach was to create a grid like structure and paint within these limits without any focal point as such , but rather generate a more fractal effect where any small section describes the whole. This short series was a deviation from earlier work which was more figurative and an exploration of an ideas around the use of structural containment and balancing that with fluid gestural brush strokes.
The artworks influence is more connected to ideas as opposed to any particular preceding style as such except maybe field abstraction, but not in the free form approach of early expressionists. in some ways from a metaphorical point of view it might represent a desire for balance of masculine and feminine energies or left brain right brain dichotomies or social points of conflict between rigid social structures and those forces which push back against control and containment.
