About this artwork
This is a large acrylic painting on a 100 x 76 x 4 cm professional quality canvas. It is abstract in terms of technique and style and based on the rhythms and cycles of growth seen in nature. A sense of movement, pattern and sequence is the key to this work and there are a series of geometric and curved forms interlocking across the surface of the canvas. The image is built up in layers of acrylic medium combined with tissue, leaves, newsprint…
and card. Incisions, both mechanical and hand drawn are recorded in lightly etched marks. Translucent and enamel glazes have been added over time and the reflective qualities of the metallic paint respond to different lighting conditions, transforming and enlivening the surface. Peter has been influenced by both the Cubist and Futurist Art movements.

« I believe passionately in the power of art to transform both ourselves, the way we think about the world, and the environment in which we live. »
Peter Corr has always been fascinated by the movement towards abstraction and the simplification of subject matter, form, and color. Most of his works occupy a transitional space between figuration and abstraction. Corr always conveys a tension between representational perspective and the canvas as a two-dimensional design. He does not describe a particular place, rather, he is interested in the role played by experiences, events, feelings, as well as the colors and textures that form the visual backdrop of our lives.
