Composition (Wrapped), oil on canvas on cardboard, plastic strings.Laura Barbuto
What those strings represent?
I think I enjoy the antagonism… Oil painting is so organic and with movement. The strings show tension.
Love the combination of colours in the paint and the string, and the way the string encloses but can’t contain the artwork … =D
Thank you. Glad you like it and I think you are right: the strings can’t contain it but they try.
Nice one. I also want to know about the strings. They compliment the composition but they are not embedded within the painting, thus an extraneous meaning? I like the way the signature is part of the composition.
Thanks! The strings are strange to the painting, alien. Tense and unorganic… I like that, they are forced to be together.
Okay! I get the feel that you want to contain the painting, hold it together unless it flies off the canvas … lovely work!
Wonderful work. Love the combo of strings and painting. Cool dimensional abstract.
Thank you very much!
Love the playfulness of your string works – there’s a really nice contrast between the depth of the painting and the graphic precision of the strings.
Thanks, Richard. Maybe that was the tension I was looking for here.
