Description:
An original acrylic painting on Japanese paper created during an artist residency in Japan. The work explores the room as a space of memory, transition, and emotional presence. Through layered colour, gestural marks, and abstracted architectural forms, an interior emerges that exists between the physical and the imagined. The delicate surface of Japanese paper allows the acrylic pigments to absorb and settle, creating a quiet interplay between transparency, texture, and depth.
Medium & Materials:
Acrylic paint on Japanese paper.
Dimensions:
Approx. 21 × 29.7 cm
About the Work:
Created during a period of immersion in Japan, Painted Rooms reflects an exploration of interior spaces as psychological landscapes. The paintings consider how places hold traces of experience, memory, and human presence. Rather than depicting a specific room, the work creates an ambiguous environment where architecture becomes fluid and subjective.
The use of Japanese paper connects the work to traditions of delicacy, restraint, and sensitivity to material. The painting balances fragility and permanence, allowing the surface itself to become part of the composition.
Why This Piece Matters:
This work represents a moment of artistic exchange and observation during the artist’s residency in Japan. It reflects an ongoing investigation into the relationship between space, memory, and the body—transforming an everyday interior into a contemplative landscape.
Collector's Note:
This is a one-of-a-kind original painting on Japanese paper, created during an artist residency in Japan, signed and dated by the artist. No reproductions exist.
