About this artwork
'Twilight' is part of a series of paintings examining light. Grace Ainley uses bronze coloured leaf to capture light from the setting sun. This piece is bold in its simplicity. Yet the layers of metallic leaf create an intricate labyrinth. As the painting reflects the changing light, the viewer always sees something new.
(Note: as part of the creative process, this painting incorporates over a hundred sheets of metallic leaf. While every effort… has been made to preserve this with Japanese gold size, some flaking may still occur.)

« I challenge the notion that art must be easily categorized, explained and defined. Instead I invite the viewer to embrace the beauty in ambiguity, imperfection and simplicity. »
