About the Item
This original abstract painting, Setting, stands as a beautifully subtle expression of contemporary geometric abstraction by artist Kevin Cross. The piece is brought to life through acrylic on canvas, a medium that lends itself perfectly to the layered complexity of the work. Dominated by a serene, muted blue palette, the painting captures the viewer with its tranquil yet intricate composition, composed of softly geometric forms.
At first glance, the rectangular shapes within the artwork seem structured and defined, but closer inspection reveals softened edges that create a delicate, almost ethereal quality. The corners of the shapes, rather than being sharp and harsh, have been intentionally rounded, inviting a fluid interaction between the forms. The gradient transitions that run through the piece evoke a sense of movement, as if light is gently spilling across the surface of the canvas, changing the intensity and hue of the blues. These gradients give the work an incredible depth, guiding the eye seamlessly from one area of the painting to another.
The muted blue color scheme is understated yet rich with emotional resonance. The tones, ranging from light and airy to deep and contemplative, offer a meditative experience, allowing the viewer to interpret the mood in personal ways. This choice of color feels both grounding and expansive, encouraging introspection. The harmony of the colors, paired with the balance between the hard-edged geometry and the soft gradation of hues, creates a fascinating contrast — a dance between the rigid and the fluid, the structured and the soft.
As part of the contemporary geometric abstract tradition, Setting brings a fresh and nuanced perspective to the genre. It speaks to the power of simplicity, where minimal forms and a limited color palette can evoke deep complexity and layered meaning. The interplay between light and shadow, soft and hard, is handled with delicate precision, offering a sensory experience that evolves the longer one observes the work.
The artwork is signed by Kevin Cross, a mark of authenticity and the artist’s intent. The painting is fully ready for display, either as the centerpiece of a modern living space or as a contemplative addition to a gallery wall. For those drawn to thoughtful and elegant expressions of abstract art, Setting offers both aesthetic beauty and emotional depth.
This striking piece is available for purchase at Signet Contemporary Art, located in Chelsea. It is also available for online acquisition.
Artist Biography:
Kevin Cross is a self-taught Irish Contemporary Artist based in New York City. Born and raised in Limerick, Ireland, he relocated to New York City in 2006, where he began to develop his art practice. His work has been exhibited nationally and is held in private collections both in the U.S. and abroad.
In his artistic practice, Cross is captivated by the power of colour gradients to evoke emotion and create mood. Each hue flows seamlessly into the next, forming a visual language that speaks to the complexity of human experience. Through delicate, harmonious colour interactions and the juxtaposition of hard edges with soft gradients, he transforms the canvas into a vivid landscape of feelings, inviting viewers to embark on a personal journey through his work.
Central to Cross’s creative process is the relationship between the viewer and the painting. He believes that each observer brings a unique perspective, background, and emotional history, allowing the artwork to resonate on multiple levels. His aim is to create an immersive experience where viewers not only see the colors but also feel their vibrancy and depth.
By harnessing the dynamic nature of colour gradients, Cross explores themes of transition, transformation, and the quest for balance, mirroring the flux of our internal landscapes. The smooth blending of tones serves as a metaphor for life’s ever-changing emotions. As viewers immerse themselves in the layers of color, he hopes they find solace and a sense of belonging, creating a shared space of understanding and reflection.

“Through my art, I aim to capture the essence of the pursuit for equilibrium. Some days, the creative process feels effortless, with colors blending seamlessly, reminiscent of the moments of joy that punctuate life in vibrant New York City. On other days, the struggle is palpable; the canvas can feel resistant, making each decision an uphill battle. These contrasting experiences deeply inform my work, resonating with viewers and reflecting the highs and lows of our shared human experience..”- Kevin Cross
