A Closer Look at the Work ®
This work is part of the Lyrical Abstraction movement, in which the spontaneity of the brushstroke takes precedence. The blue paper, left partially visible, lends depth and unity to the composition.
The space is structured by long horizontal purple strokes whose spread suggests rapid movement. On the left, a series of orange and red brushstrokes breaks up this horizontal flow with a more circular and energetic movement.
Here, James Pichette plays on a strong contrast between warm tones and cooler colors. The vermilion, orange, and brown hues visually advance toward the viewer, while the grays and mauves stabilize the composition.
The technique alternates between transparent washes and more opaque impasto, revealing the brushstrokes and the energy of the gesture.
The work conveys a particularly expressive sense of movement and colorful tension.
