Square Cloud

Square Cloud 2022, is a multi-layered work in acrylics, gold leaf and glaze on a clear Perspex block.  The two largest faces (the front and back) are painted in curl like brush strokes.  The work is an abstract view of a cumulus cloud seen through a plane. Although the work is technically a painting, it has a sculptural quality.  It can be placed on a table or surface or a shelf.  You can see through the front and back which adds depth to each of the painted 'faces'.  The light refracts the image when looking down into the work which shows another view and dimension to an otherwise familiar subject, not unlike seeing clouds through a plane window.  Similar to real clouds, your viewpoint depends on what you see.
