About the Item
Path Upwards is painted with oil and wax on canvas created in 2023. The painting contains layers of oil paint built up to a rich surface of whites and greys. The oil paint mixed with cold wax medium creates a slightly matte and textured surface, revealing more of the brushwork behind the mark-making. The energetic and unfussy marking-making brings to mind elements from the landscape or forms from nature. Upon closer observation viewers will see text written underneath the painting and buried underneath the painted layers.

- Interference, Contemporary Abstract Oil PaintingLocated in Philadelphia, PAIn this piece, the intense use of negative space highlights each individual marks character, weight and texture. The painting explores various types of mark making and paint application inspired by elements of the landscape painted in various thicknesses, intensities and with a variety of different tools. Each mark is calculated and responsive to the one that came before it, creating a cause and effect relationship across the surface of the canvas. Restraint is a key element of this new body of work from artist Matt Higgins and the option to go further is always there. However, the excitement and spontaneity of the piece would therefore be sacrificed. Done in one session of intense meditative focus, A Place We Can See depends upon the exact moment of creation...Category
