About the Item
Abstract. Vibrant. Painting.
About the Artist:
"I contemplate every color, mark, and placement of the line to formulate what I call rhythmic velocities: relationships of color and motion that give life to the composition, creating a heartbeat. I am interested in the duality of math and design: through repetition, a line made of color becomes a rhythmic pattern. This concept is found when composing music, organic landscapes and architectural structures. By referencing these sources, my abstractions transcend their formal components, reaching beyond a minimalist canon. My work is composed of hard edges and thin lines set against an abstract field or a pictorial space. Each color has a quickness that is relative to the colors surrounding it; this gives my paintings visual movement and dislocates the viewer. Through linear and geometric forms, my paintings explore design and mathematical concepts found broadly throughout culture. They are improvised from a wide range of sources such as my conversations with scholars in various fields of music, architecture and engineering, my life experiences and travels."

By Jodi Fuchs
Located in Los Angeles, CA
Jodi Fuchs creates artworks that speak to the chaos and stillness (and the reconciliation of these two forces) that is inherent in the human experience. She focuses on creating modern abstract expressionistic paintings that have undeniable energy. Years of inquiry into the metaphysical aspects of life have influenced her studio practice.
This original 24-inch high by 18-inch wide painting is an acrylic composition on wood panel. It is Fuchs’ fascination with the pure creative force: understanding it, harnessing it and expressing it, that fuels her painting process. This painting is signed on the back. This artwork does not require framing. Convenient local Los Angeles area delivery. Affordable Continental U.S. and worldwide shipping. A certificate of authenticity issued by the art gallery is included.
Born in New York in 1964, Jodi Fuchs is an award-winning contemporary abstract painter living in Southern California. Her education about color and pattern came on the job while working as a decorative painter for 20+ years in Los Angeles. Fuch's work has been featured on 50+ TV and film productions, graced the lobbies of hotels from New York to Miami to Portland Oregon.
