Block
Bold horizontal and vertical bands of color intersect with raw, textured energy in this striking woodcut, reflecting Sean Scully's signature preoccupation with the emotional power of geometric abstraction. The grain of the wood asserts itself through the ink, lending an organic warmth to the otherwise austere striped composition. Printed on delicate Okawara paper, the work balances the monumental with the intimate, a tension central to Scully's enduring artistic vision.
