Gradation: An Exploration of Colour and Light

Colour in Georgia Amar's work is never static. Any given colour imperceptibly moves through a range of hues and intensities revealing a master hand at colour gradation. Perspectives suddenly shift causing the viewer to reassess awareness of self in space. Popular but not populist, the art of Georgia Amar transforms a space into a privileged place of contemplation, allowing the viewer to achieve an inner calm and emerge reenergized.
