140815 This Cold Is Killing Me

Description

A wide horizontal field is built from overlapping passages of turquoise, yellow, pink, orange and blue. A dense cobalt mass occupies the lower left, while a red-orange vertical form rises at the right and pale rectangular areas interrupt the upper centre. Drips, scratched and drawn lines, repeated short marks and loose brushstrokes cross the surface; pale violet handwritten Cyrillic text remains visible along the lower left edge.

Authorial Comment

We made this painting outdoors. At that time we often painted outside together — in parks, in attics and on industrial sites, moving between temporary places rather than working from a fixed studio.

History

Glass, 2019 — the later Work on this canvas

The canvas was later buried and severely damaged. After excavation it was conserved and restored, and the damaged canvas was subsequently reworked into the 2019 painting Glass.

Early Paintings

140812 GiftA large mixed-media painting organised as interlocking fields of saturated pink, green, blue, yellow and orange. Curving outlined shapes, soft-edged colour patches and smaller figure-like or plant-like fragments remain distributed across the surface without resolving into a single continuous scene.
190612 GlassA thick white contour dominates a dark, mottled field, with a broad oval rim at the top and a rounded U-shaped body descending below. Blue, green, red and black marks remain visible through and around the white outline.
