Acrylic on twenty 28 x 35 cm canvas panels connected by 12 cm wide primed canvas strips
SDED 201114 started in April of 2020, with the idea of using 28 x 35 cm canvas panels to create a larger piece. (As suggested by the title) there were 20 panels used, all connected with 12 cm wide strips of primed canvas, weaved through cuts made in the panels [an early picture of the piece is shown here, at the end]. Although the project required many additional steps, the COVID-19 pandemic just started a month earlier (in March 2020), and the extra work element appeared at the time to be of no consequence. The weaving continues on top of the panels as well, true to the overall concept where the primed canvas strips are shown in two shades of magenta rectangles.•The search for the elusive (theoretical) 2.5 dimension continues, and the 2-D to 3-D transitions use the same required techniques:— optical illusion (for depth and overlapping),— real objects, and— well controlled chromatic contrasts.
