Sillage

Sillage - Acrylic on canvas · Palette knife · 30 × 40 in · Unframed · Original  · Los Angeles, California

Not a place, a passage. Sillage is the trace of something that has moved through: light across water, wind through grass, a memory that won't resolve into image. Painted entirely with a palette knife in horizontal striations of ivory, olive, coral, and deep indigo, the surface carries the physical record of each gesture.

From a distance, calm. Up close, alive.

A painting that changes entirely depending on the light in the room.

Acrylic on canvas. Palette knife. Certificate of authenticity included. Ready to hang unframed.

Part of L'Abstrait, within French-American painter Laurence Gamelin's Mémoire Vivante.
