Acrylic on canvas measuring 61 x 61 cm. Intuitive work.
A vibrant and abstract work characterized by a blend of figurative and surreal elements. The composition is busy and lacks a single focal point, inviting the viewer to explore different areas. There are several recognizable yet distorted or fragmented, forms and figures.
The brushstrokes are fluid and expressive, contributing to the dreamlike or subconscious quality of the piece. The colours shift and blend creating depth and movement within the seemingly chaotic arrangement. 'The Closing-in Of Night' evokes a sense of fluid transformation and an interplay between the recognizable and the abstract. The title suggests a transition or shifts in perception, which is represented by the dynamic and somewhat disorienting visual elements. The painting feels energetic and perhaps a little whimsical, despite its enigmatic nature.
