Afterglow
Afterglow is an exploration of immersion and tangible experience. The paintings envelop the viewer, creating a deep and complex environment of colour, shadows and light.
This project was completed as the final piece for my undergraduate degree.
In its exhibited format, the four canvases were connected by curved metal pieces allowing the piece to be free standing. I chose to use un-primed calico for the canvas material so that light could pass through. I used warm toned lights behind the structure to create an atmospheric glow.
​
'Afterglow' currently resides at my home along the expanse of the living room wall. It feels captivating and dramatic, but also warm and inviting.
