A richly textured surface of coarse burlap serves as the foundation for Mark Hagen's layered application of acrylic paint, where the woven fabric beneath subtly asserts itself through the built-up pigment. The work belongs to Hagen's ongoing Additive Painting series, in which repeated gestures of accumulation create depth and material presence rather than relying on conventional mark-making. The interplay between the raw, industrial quality of the burlap and the deliberate density of the acrylic produces a surface that rewards close inspection.
