Green Lagoon (2022) 200 x 190cm
(2022) 200 x 190cm,
Mixed media and phosphorescent paint.
Green's 'Green Lagoon' serves as a foundation for her exploration of abstraction, employing a diverse range of materials including paint, pen, gold leaf, and spray paint. Exhibited during the 59 Venice Biennale of Art and then again in Green's exhibition 'Brighten Dark Spaces', this particular work diverges from Green's usual incorporation of collage and figures, focusing instead on a intricate array of shapes, textures, and varied brushstrokes. Her primary interest lies in the act of mark making and the playful interference of pain illuminated by UV light, which evokes a sense of unrestrained creativity akin to the spontaneity of childhood.
