About the Item

The Clear Green - Commission Completed Acrylic on yupo 21 x 26" A commissioned artwork in the style of the artist's "Clear Blue" painting. “Balancing Acts” developed out of a series of compositional studies focused on color, value, shape and weight of stone like shapes. The pigments in watercolor and acrylic mix with materials like liquid graphite and gold dust to create surprising landscapes within each form. They act as metaphors for how I balance the different “worlds” of wearing many hats— among them are mother, director of an organization, and painter. - Rhia Hurt ---- Inspired by her lived experiences—both the urban and natural landscape, Hurt depicts forms suggestive of stones, reflecting pools, rope, netting, and chain link fences. Exploring narratives through time and space, Hurt considers the journey as well as a reflection of the final work in her practice. With a meditative process that encompasses experimentation and intuition, Hurt collaborates with the materials. It is a balancing act. Central to her practice is the ovoid form. Using this shape as a constant, Hurt experiments and refines her gestures by engaging with the formal qualities of paint and surfaces. The watercolor and high flow acrylic paints dry and recede at various rates on papers, fabrics, and directly on the wall. Hurt embraces the flows and shifts in color and luminosity as well as the surface tension that occurs between paint and plane. Hurt seeks to capture visual experiences in the moment, as well as beauty and mystery. In these translucent—often weightless seeming—forms is a yearning to see through and beyond. Hurt balances serenity and tension. - Eileen Jeng Lynch, Founder of Neumeraki and Curator of Visual Arts at Wave Hill
