Primavera Pop 27, Blue, Green, Orange, Red Geometric Abstract Mandala

2022

About the Item

This multicolored drawing has a beautiful, soft mottled texture created with Judge's unique powered pigment technique. Primavera Pop 27 is a predominately blue and green mandala shape with orange and red at the center creating an intricately layered design. The combination of the ordered symmetry and the vibrant colors is powerful and elegant. Signed, dated and titled on verso with watermark on recto. 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.
