Discover the creation in interiors
NS 104 (the NS stands for Night Sky) painting is part of Monaghan's Night Sky series. This series originated when Monaghan began making the White Sulfur Springs Artist Retreat in the Catskill mountains of Upstate New York. This series is ongoing and examines the feeling of the expansiveness of the night sky over the Catskill mountains and how it makes the viewer feel connected to the universe in a very primal way. We feel small yet large and connected…
to something bigger at the same time.

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.
