About the Item
Ketta Ioannidou
Black Rainbow 4
2019
Oil on paper
20 x 16 inches
Signed and dated on verso
Ioannidou’s paintings exist in a dreamlike state, creating a weightless, fleeting moment and an indeterminate psychological space. Migrating between water, sky and land she creates abstract images in a process that feels like layering memories, simplifying them down to their essence – the shapes, the colors, the feelings. Flurries of deep vibrant hues are amplified, blended, blurred, and soaked until they appear liquid, invoking morphing landscapes and dissipating natural phenomena receding towards oblivion. In the oil on paper series Black Rainbows (2019), repeated rounded forms of darkened blotches appear before vertical streams of deeply saturated hydro skies while in Excuse Me While I Kiss the Sky I, II and III, shadow clouds infuse patterns against an acid lime, bubble pink and cerulean blue backdrop.
