Mary Judge
Color Structure Series Dark Steel, Geometric Drawing in Black, Red, Blue, Yellow

2012

$1,500

About

This geometric drawing has a beautiful, soft mottled texture created with Judge's unique powered pigment technique. The ordered symmetry of the diagonal lines in deeply pigmented black, bright neon yellow, cobalt blue and dark red is powerful and elegant. Signed, titled and dated by artist on the verso. The powdered pigment drawings on paper were made by laying perforated stencils on rag paper and pouncing the stencils with a sack of powdered pigment. Pigment passes through the perforations, leaving patterns, creating the composition. The technique the artist developed is based on the Italian process spolvero (meaning “dust”) that was used by Renaissance artists to transfer drawings to the wall for fresco painting. Each stencil is made by tracing a single symmetrical form numerous times. By working in series, Mary Judge is able to develop a form and continue mining its rich variations. Mary Judge's work explores the diagrammatic, the topological, the three-dimensional aspects of the drawing both through a linear-planar and tonal atmospheric representation of form, as a way of exploring what seems like a lost territory between image and object. Archival notes: The drawings are made with archival powdered pigment on Somerset 100% cotton rag printing paper and fixed with matte fixative.
