Deflated (Magenta)
2010
A boldly coloured canvas sags and collapses under its own weight, its magenta-painted surface folding and creasing as it slumps against the wall. Angela de la Cruz subverts the traditional conventions of painting by treating the canvas as a physical, sculptural object rather than a flat picture plane. The work evokes a sense of exhaustion and defeat, blurring the boundary between painting and sculpture.
