A vibrant composition of acrylic and collage on paper, Brian Clarke's *Red Icon #2* pulses with rich, saturated reds that dominate the visual field with an almost ceremonial intensity. Clarke's masterful layering of materials creates a dynamic interplay between painted surfaces and collaged elements, evoking both the luminosity of stained glass and the graphic boldness of sacred imagery. The work reflects Clarke's enduring engagement with light, color, and symbolic form, distilled here into a striking and meditative object.
