About this artwork
This painting, a synthetic board painting found by Monaghan at the local second hand store, was repurposed, reworked and reimagined in his unique style and vision. Monaghan took the traditional Andrew Wyatt like painting of a cat lounging on a bed, flipped it on its side and turned it into one of his black and white universe of particles paintings. In his version, the cat is immersed in a cozy particle universe that surrounds and encompasses him,…
the bed and the window and reflection. What was separate becomes universal and connected. Monaghan keep the key elements of the original work expanding on it into his universe and vision.

« 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.
