Candlelight Vigil
| Roberts has become well known for his expressionistic painting style where he begins by remaking the void of creation, then pulling his imagery from a chaotic field of thickly applied textured paint.
This approach is evidenced in this exhibition in the paintings Candlelight Vigil I and II, completed after the September 11th tragedy. In these works the pink and beige tones inhabit the energy of the process, performing what Patricia Glinton Meicholas has described as a cosmic dance, while providing a human connection with the spiritual transition that occurred that day. |
