An Exploration of Grey


As part of a continuing process that explores what painting is, An Exploration of Grey examines the physicality of painting as a means to encircle its enigmatic aura, the essence which can’t be touched or described. A limitless process of elimination whereby pointing to all that the painting concretely is, equally points to all that the enigma isn’t.
‘Whether all grow black, or all grow bright, or all remain grey, it is grey we need, to begin with, because of what it is, and of what it can do, made of bright and black, able to shed the former, or the latter, and be the latter or the former alone. But perhaps I am prey, on the subject of grey, in the grey, to delusions’ Samuel Beckett The Unnamable
