Barnaby Furnas — Concert (Grey)
Barnaby Furnas

Concert (Grey)

Barnaby Furnas's *Concert (Grey)* is a dynamic and visceral work rendered in acrylic and Saral transfer paper on linen, capturing the raw, frenetic energy of a live musical performance. Furnas employs his signature technique of flooding and staining the surface with fluid washes of color, creating a sense of movement and emotional intensity that blurs the boundary between figuration and abstraction. The muted grey palette lends the composition a charged yet haunting atmosphere, evoking both the collective ecstasy and the ephemeral nature of the concert experience.
