About this artwork
7999, initiated July 9, 1999 is a foray into abstract expressionism as expressed in rudimentary form. The familiar faces and spirits that are present in all of Monaghan's work are clearly visible here. The celestial them which becomes more pronounced in later works begins to make its presences seen here.

« 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.
