| Description: |
The
essence of constructive colour theory
is that it enables the viewer
to define form in terms of
dimensionality,
rather than representational versimilitude.
Paradoxically,
we see the
diagonal axis
representing
the self
undulate towards the centre of the image,
suggesting
inconstancy.
The adorned canvas belies a primary sense which belongs to the basic senses of our spirituality. ``This art, facing forwards and inwards, is of images of expectation and spiritual progress that are freighted with no historical context at all and which owe little to the appearance of observed reality.'' [Brian Keeble, on Cecil Collins, Temeno 11, London, 1990, p.114] |
