Private Commissions3 Line Continuum Magen 2006 Oil on Linen 275 x 245 cm / 9x8 ft Private collection, New York Installation shot - photo credit MT This large scale work was painted on site, during the summer and autumn of 2006. A composition developed over several days, through initial drawings and studies. These were created in direct response to the architecture and interior of the house, a former synagogue in the East Village of Manhattan.
3 Line Continuum Magen detail 2006 Oil on Linen A symmetrical linear structure, painted in two distinct layers creating a visual rhythmical balance. The 1st layer is constructed of 3 solid Continuum lines formed the under layer. This linear structure was inspired by the remaining 3 facade windows of the synagogue, that span from floor-to-ceiling and incorporate the Star of David. This same linear structure was then inverted and drawn-out over the 1st layer. The final surface layer of white was painted on and wiped away across the whole linen, only leaving open the 2nd drawn linear structure visible and forming negative lines. Corporate Commissions
Continuum in Balance 2006 Oil on Linen each 180 x 260 cm / 6x81/2 ft ART at the ARC collection, Geldards LLP Law firm, Nottingham Installation shot - photo credit MT Continuum in Balance explores the notions of harmony within independence and symmetry. A large scale mirrored diptych commissioned for the reception, responding to symmetry of THE ARC building. 3 continuous lines formed by inter-connecting arcs create the linear structure of each painting, but these lines are not painted, they are open spaces-negative lines between the solid areas of muted colour. The aim is to balance the complexity of the linear structure with a simplicity of the tonal layering ... ... creating two sides, two views. Inviting communication between both, allowing investigation of the differences and embracing harmony.
