About the Item

Gray Woman, 2018 Christopher Mudgett Gray Woman is a captivating abstract portrait that draws viewers into an evolving visual dialogue. Through bold lines, fluid shapes, and a distinctive use of multiple perspectives, Mudgett invites us to explore the complexities of the female form in a way that is both playful and profound. The work's whimsical nature belies its depth, offering a rich, multi-layered experience that becomes increasingly intriguing with each subsequent viewing. Painted in Mudgett’s signature monochromatic palette, Gray Woman is immediately recognizable for its striking contrasts and sophisticated use of tone. The choice of gray—applied in varying shades and textures—creates an atmosphere of both mystery and intimacy, while allowing the formal elements of the painting to take center stage. The figure of the woman, though abstracted and fragmented, remains undeniably present, with the artist’s dynamic use of line and perspective offering a fresh interpretation of portraiture. Through these elements, Mudgett disrupts the traditional confines of portraiture, presenting the subject from multiple viewpoints simultaneously, creating a sense of movement and transformation. This work exemplifies Mudgett’s talent for merging abstraction with emotional depth. His imaginative treatment of the subject matter challenges the viewer to reconsider how identity is constructed and perceived. The lines that fragment the figure evoke both the complexity and fluidity of human experience, while the shifting perspectives suggest an ongoing process of discovery and reinterpretation. Gray Woman is a perfect embodiment of Mudgett’s signature style—an innovative fusion of abstraction, figuration, and psychological nuance. With its bold visual language and enigmatic presence, this painting invites viewers into a space of continual reflection, where the boundaries between the abstract and the real blur, revealing new facets with every encounter. *Artist signature and date of creation written on the reverse. **This work of art comes with a Certificate of Provenance, provided by the artist.

Hide and Seek (portrait) - abstract art , made in black and white, blue colors
By Daria Kotlyarova
Located in Fort Lee, NJ
Hide and Seek (portrait) - abstract art , made in black and white, blue colors. The game of hide and seek. The leitmotif of the repeatability of the plot causes fear, fear is very romantic, this is the main motive of surrealism. Intrusive repeat of the plot. No fate. There is a choice. If everything is predetermined, there is no one to judge. In the modern world, the artist is a peculiar explorer of the time that he lives In. The “main character” of this world is a man whose gaze is turned inward. This view projects its existential reality, where the figurative language of painting is a method of transmitting abstract images of the experiences of the main characters and the time in which they exist on an equal footing with the viewer. Pictures of Daria Kotlyarova have no plot, at first glance, they have no action, but there is a moment. The moment before the second “before” ... and the viewer stops and freezes in tension, this is almost a psychological “cinema reception” that refers us to David Hockney...
