Geometry in Grey

A mesmerising mid-century geometric abstract painting composed of layered angular forms that appear to float and overlap within a carefully balanced composition, executed in oil onto canvas.

The artist explores spatial tension through a series of intersecting planes – rectangles, trapezoids, and irregular polygons – that shift in opacity and tone, creating a rhythmic sense of movement and depth.

Rendered in a restrained monochromatic palette of cool greys, whites, and deep charcoal, the work exudes a quiet architectural precision. The translucent layering of shapes introduces a sense of transparency and lightness, while the hard-edged forms retain a strong graphic clarity.

The brushwork is smooth and deliberate, with even application of paint that emphasises the structural purity of the design rather than gestural expression. The artist’s refined control of tone and balance reflects the mid-century fascination with form, proportion, and visual harmony.

This oil on canvas comes unframed, and is in excellent vintage condition. It is on stretched canvas so is ready to hang but if you would like us to help you with framing, you can contact us here.
