Abstract Connections

by Christian Ovís

Warm orange and yellow patches of colour spread out around a dark centre. Turquoise, green and red lie amongst the broad strokes. The background alternates between light grey, white and dark shaded areas. Small splashes and sharp fragments of colour fan out upwards and to the sides.

The composition combines a central concentration with open edges. The lightest areas in the top right provide space for the loose splashes. Dark areas on the left and at the bottom bring out the warmth of the colours. Turquoise and green provide a cool counterbalance in the right-hand half. Some strokes blend gently into one another, whilst others end in sharp fragments. This creates multiple layers that remain visible simultaneously. The eye can follow various directions from the centre.

This expressive piece suits a modern interior with both natural and bold accents. It pairs well with simple furniture, dark details and accessories in orange or green-blue. In a living room, dining room or creative workspace, it can serve as a vibrant focal point. A neutral wall allows the interplay between large areas of colour and small splashes to really come into its own.
