3 Orbs, created by Monaghan in 2012, is a nod to painter Anselm Kiefer whom his work has been compared too. The piece is a path leading into infinity. It was inspired by the long expanses in the Everglade National Park in Florida, USA. The piece's 3 orbs float over an endless road and are eyes of the characters in the piece. It is signed with Monaghan's tm on the bottom righthand side. The piece gets its texture with the use of egg shells and…

Todd Monaghan
United States
« My work is about finding what exists in the accidental or random, finding inspiration in the dance, and celebration of the practice. This is my making process. »
Todd Monaghan explores spontaneous intuition and the subconscious mind through 'flicking, spilling, dripping, and scraping' paint into multi-layered, textural, and immersive works. The American painter and sculptor's pieces are created through impulsive movements that welcome chance and experimentation. Monaghan does not paint using an easel, instead preferring to pin his canvases to the walls of his studio. He places them on the floor and back onto the walls, searching for new discoveries every time.
