Forgiveness
Forgiveness
| Formally in Forgiveness Roberts is at his best, flattening and collapsing planes and space, evincing gorgeous passages of color particularly in mother/wife's feet and arms, and powerful patterns and shapes that hold the surface of the painting.
The cacophony of color and flowers enveloping the figures, is tempered here both formally and narratively by the blues of their skin. Intense and complicated relations are expressed in the work. The visual connects to the audience at the level of emotion. |
