Description:
Spiral Surge captures the viewer’s attention with its bold and textured surface, created through the rapid, stabbing motions of a kabuki makeup brush. The dark, swirling forms are not smooth but marked with sharp, intense strokes, adding a layer of aggression and force to the composition. The piece is dominated by blacks and grays, with subtle hints of color beneath the surface, creating a sense of tension and movement. The stabbing brushwork gives the painting a raw, almost physical presence, reflecting the turmoil and energy within. Spiral Surge embodies Keatley’s exploration of the internal forces that drive us, expressed through a highly tactile and dynamic form.
