About the Item
This abstract painting by Roger Mudre is made with acrylic paint over metal leaf on birch panel. It is part of Mudre's Venezia series, which is inspired by his recent trip to the Northern Italian city. In it, Mudre weaves his exploration of the circle together with a geometric floral pattern reminiscent of Venician Fortuny Fabrics. Each of Mudre's pieces are named for botanicals, and Lacrima di Giobbe (which translates to Job's Tears, a tropical plant native to Southeast Asia), was chosen because of the similarity in color to the plant's seeds. Due to the hand-applied, metal leaf under-layer, this painting transforms and shimmers in changing light. The painting itself measures 36" x 36" and is framed in a warm silver floater frame. Framed, it measures 37.5" x 37.5". It is wired and ready to hang.
The focus of Roger Mudre’s work is the circle. This Connecticut-based artist finds inspiration in the colors and patterns of nature. Painting in jewel toned acrylics, he builds sheer layers of color on a subtly reflective metal leaf surface to create a picture plane that changes with the viewer’s perspective.
Roger's work is part of many corporate and private collections including Hotel Zero Degrees in Norwalk, Connecticut, Frontier Communications, and the Energizer Corporation in Shelton, Connecticut. Roger is influenced by Joesph Albers, Sol LeWitt, and Mark Rothko.
“I have never known any other path to take except that of an artist," Roger says. "The concept of infinity has been the inspiration for my work, employing the circle, the perfect form, as a muse. These mages reference microscopic worlds, cellular growth, auras, the cosmos, and places unseen, only imagined. The square format allows for a field of pattern that continues equally in all directions, reinforcing the feeling of infinity. My paintings begin with the application of metallic leaf. Using both additive and subtractive techniques, multiple layers of glazed color are built up. The underlying metallic leaf not only adds a rich tone to the work, it allows the light to refract off the surface of the finished painting. A variety of tools are used including brushes, scrapers and rags giving the paintings a very nuanced texture and complex depth of color. The combination of reflective metal leaf and the many layers of glazed color allow the painting to appear subtly different, depending on the light and viewing angle, creating a constantly changing visual experience. The result is a record of a journey that is both a sensuous and a creative exploration."

Roger Mudre
Artist Roger Mudre replicates patterns and hues found in nature in his paintings and prints, and the circles that can frequently be found in his abstract works represent infinity and owe to his interest in microscopic life forms and the cosmos.
Based in Connecticut, Mudre is the gallery director for the Silvermine Arts Center in New Canaan, Connecticut. He works in acrylics, and his paintings begin with a metal leaf foundation with layered colors overtop to create a sense of limitlessness which changes pursuant to the viewing angle. The effect is subtle, though unmistakable, and adds a level of complexity to an already entrancing image. Mudre has cited the work of Sol LeWitt and Josef Albers as having influenced his art.
Mudre’s work is a part of the corporate collections of Hotel Zero Degrees, Frontier Communications and the Energizer Corporation, among others. He has had numerous solo exhibitions in the state of Connecticut dating back to the late 1990s. In addition to the Silvermine Arts Center, he has solo exhibited at RGA Galleries in Ridgefield, the Bruce Kershner Gallery in Fairfield and the Wilton Library with group exhibitions at the corporate headquarters for General Electric, the University of Connecticut and Kouros Gallery in New York.
