Artwork Details
Edward positions his practice at the intersection of Abstract Expressionism and structural design, wielding sticks and knives to construct a heavily textured topographical surface. By forcefully applying and excavating dense layers of pigment, the artist reveals a turbulent stratigraphy of vivid emerald, azure, crimson, and luminous yellow. A severe graffito technique scores sweeping diagonal cuts and rough grids directly into the wet impasto, challenging the rigid logic of his formal architectural training with frenzied, subtractive mark-making. This relentless physical cycle of material accumulation and forceful removal treats the canvas as a literal archaeological site. Through these deliberate material interventions, Edward displays his intent to operate as a modern primitive, forging a fractured, symbolic record of contemporary culture built from raw pigment and dismantled geometry.
