a spot on the wood
This bold, mixed-media canvas explores survival and fragmentation through a collision of gesture, texture, and symbolic layering. The phrase “There is always one spot on the wood that is not burning yet” is handwritten into a cloud of white and pink, serving as a poetic anchor amid a charged landscape of splattered pigments, silhouetted forms, and ruptured abstraction.
Rendered in oil, acrylic, ink, and photographic fragments wheatpasted onto canvas, the work juxtaposes vibrant chaos with carefully embedded imagery like the solitary raised hand and obscured faces that speak to memory, resistance, and erasure. Electric strokes of turquoise, salmon, and neon yellow pulse against jagged textural contrasts, creating a surface both playful and haunted.
