Merry-Go-Round

This captivating artwork showcases an abstract composition featuring multiple nude figures intertwined in a dynamic and expressive manner. The figures, rendered in soft, stylized lines and subtle hues, convey a sense of movement and depth. Their expressions depict a range of emotions, adding to the intrigue of the piece. The warm orange background contrasts beautifully with the cooler tones of the figures, enhancing the overall vibrancy of the painting. Techniques such as layering and contouring create an ethereal quality, making the characters seem almost otherworldly. This piece invites the viewer to reflect on themes of connection, human experience, and emotional depth.
This painting can be elegantly integrated into modern interiors such as living rooms, art studios, or creative office spaces. It would serve as a stunning focal point on a feature wall, complemented by minimalist furniture to allow the artwork to shine. Additionally, it can be placed in a gallery setting or used as a conversation starter in social spaces.

My work is born out of a specific, but quite diverse community: The models depicted are artist peers across all ages, ethnic origins, and orientations belonging to the Brooklyn arts collective/residency platform I’ve been running for a decade+. My painting studio also serves as a presentation arena for experimental co-productions spanning multiple creative disciplines. And so, my images are typically shared with the public within a live art setting, where dancers, musicians, and acrobats —often the very same people portrayed in my imagery— perform alongside and in dialog with my paintings.
