Corinthian Check Spring – Rectangular rug

Corinthian Check is a playful reimagining of elements of classical architecture. Orderly geometric shapes are loosely rendered in broad strokes of pigment colour, giving an abstract impression of what could be arches, windows and doorways. This large-scale design was inspired by the notion of a transient city made of pigments and inks. Rendering classical concepts of proportion with free and open marks and a joy of colours, a vast watery city looms as if it were a mirage in the hazy distance, setting a visionary, theatrical backdrop.
