About the Item
Mitsumasa Kadota’s "Whirlwind 2" (2023) is a mesmerizing composition that embodies energy, velocity, and transformation. Created with acrylic and carborundum on cotton, this painting captures a moment of swirling dynamism, where colors converge in a vortex of movement. The title, "Whirlwind 2", evokes nature’s untamed forces, a reflection of Kadota’s ability to channel raw motion onto the canvas.
Kadota’s mastery of gestural abstraction is fully realized in "Whirlwind 2". The painting features sharp, intersecting strokes of electric blues, fiery oranges, deep purples, and striking whites, creating an almost three-dimensional effect. These elements twist and spiral toward an unseen force, as if caught in a state of flux.
The incorporation of carborundum introduces a tactile depth, allowing light to interact differently with various areas of the surface. This results in an ever-changing visual experience, where certain details emerge and recede depending on the angle of view.
Kadota’s work has been exhibited internationally, including at Lincoln Center in New York and the Sezon Museum of Modern Art in Japan. His unique ability to manipulate color, texture, and motion places him among the most compelling contemporary artists.
"Whirlwind 2", created in 2023, represents a continued evolution of his exploration into movement and materiality. The dimensions (60.8 × 60.6 cm) make it an ideal piece for collectors looking for a work that commands attention while maintaining versatility in placement.
In person, "Whirlwind 2" possesses an almost kinetic presence. The bold, sweeping brushstrokes give the illusion of motion, as if the colors are being drawn into a swirling force at the heart of the canvas. The contrast between cool and warm tones creates a dynamic interplay, making the painting feel both expansive and structured.
The carborundum-infused surface introduces a nuanced texture, allowing light to alter the painting’s appearance throughout the day. Some areas feel almost sculptural, catching the light in a way that enhances the sense of movement and energy.
Kadota’s "Whirlwind 2" is an exhilarating expression of movement and transformation. Its interplay of color, texture, and gestural force makes it a compelling addition to any collection—an artwork that continually reveals new layers of meaning with each viewing.
