Light Leaking from the Cup of His Hand Waterprint

£14,300.00

2024
Oil, Flashe, ink and water, on canvas
58” x 84” / 147 × 213 cm

I explore light as both a tangible substance and a fleeting experience. This work was sparked by a moment when I saw my son attempt to scoop a rainbow projected on the wall. I translate this encounter into flowing forms and radiant bursts, a balance between wonder and futility. There’s a sense of transience and release, how easily light slips through our fingers. How illuminations promises magic, yet remains just out of reach.
