Separation of Body and Soul (Ultramarine)
A luminous figure appears to dissolve into an ethereal ultramarine field, capturing the threshold between physical existence and transcendence. Quinn's masterful handling of oil paint creates a tension between the tangible weight of the body and its apparent release into boundless blue. The work invites contemplation on the fragile boundary separating our corporeal selves from something ineffable beyond.
