“Barlume,” 46x46” mixed media
“Barlume” — meaning a faint or wavering soft light — captures the final shimmer of summer as it yields to winter’s breath. This 46x46” painting, framed with museum glass, is composed of metallic gold and silver pigments, powdered hues, and acrylic worked wet-on-wet to mimic the richness of oil. Its surface glows with gestures born from a synthesis of global calligraphy and graffiti — a language of movement and reflection. In its strokes lives the soft light of the setting sun, that brief glimmer before the long night returns.
