A geometric explosion gathers at the center of the canvas, held together by two colored triangles that structure the space like a marker amid the white. John Beckley combines sharp lines, drawn diagonally, with more diffuse clouds of pigment, mingling with fine drops and splashes. Dark curves cross this ensemble and create an impression of rapid movement, like a trajectory abruptly halted. Up close, the overlapping dots, transparent veils, and sharper strokes create a great richness of textures. The colored impact seems to vibrate at the heart of the luminous ground that surrounds it.
