The tilted rectangles seem to slide over one another, like a colored relief unfolding in depth. John Beckley organizes this vibrant checkerboard into a fluid passage from warm yellows to greens, turquoise, and intense blues, punctuated by splashes that animate each area. The splatters and tiny droplets create a lively grain, reinforced by certain more discreet circular motifs that catch the light. Over this highly structured framework, broad white and black strokes cross the surface diagonally, bringing a free and swift gesture. The whole, framed by a wide light margin also marked by splatters, gives the impression of a luminous space in continuous motion.
