Description
-
Thick, heavy handfuls of black paint smeared, in broad, sweeping, looping strokes, over a backdrop covered in patchily blended daubs of black and white paint. Parallel grooves are etched into the medium using the artist's fingers, creating a tactile, dynamic, and almost sculptural painterly surface. Traces of blue have been mixed into the black; at the centre of the composition is a heaping scoop of white paint swirled into the black.

Discolouration; white paint appears yellow. Craquelure. Paint flaking. Insect and lizard droppings. Dust and dirt. Canvas appears to have been remounted by the artist. Holes along the sides of the canvas, where it was nailed into the stretcher. Parts of the cloth have since ripped off the stretcher. A tear at the top right corner.
