About this artwork
“Super Moon” is based on an idea of a circular form hitting the inner edge of the two canvas-boards joined together. Initially, there was a simple circular form used to define the edges of the moon. And then, the layers of paint, the sediments of daily work, layers of indigo, then semi-opaque glazes of pale green light, then some translucent violet toned down with earth green, to redefine edges that keep fleeing, to define form, that wanted to…
be more than a flat disc, and to somehow capture that fleeting element that one would call “moonlight.” The process of painting takes time, and compared to the click of a camera, a near eternity.
That circular form hitting the inner edge of the canvas board demanded respect.
The painting is painted on two canvas boards mounted over wooden stretchers for stability.

Roy Forget is an experienced artist based in France whose paintings have been exhibited nationally and in the United States. He describes his works as a way to contemplate the world he lives in, putting a painterly order into it. Forget's diverse compositions center around the human figure. Not satisfied with the cursory symbolism of the human form, he endeavors to find its weight and its presence.
