Red and Black: Egg and Space
A dynamic interplay of elemental forms emerges in David Nash's pastel and charcoal work, where a bold red egg-like shape sits in tension with surrounding dark, void-like space. Nash's gestural mark-making conveys his enduring fascination with natural forms and organic geometry, rendered with raw immediacy on paper. The contrast between the warm, luminous red and the deep, encroaching black evokes themes of life, energy, and the relationship between presence and absence.
