Jonas Wood — Backward Bol (Color)
Jonas Wood

Backward Bol (Color)

A dynamic composition rendered in gouache, colored pencil, and collage, this work reflects Jonas Wood's signature approach of flattening space and layering bold, graphic patterns. The piece depicts a bowl—likely a sporting or decorative vessel—rendered in vivid, carefully observed color, with Wood's characteristic attention to surface design and ornamentation. True to his practice, the work balances a sense of intimacy and play with a rigorous, almost architectural treatment of form and pattern.

Medium
gouache, colored pencil, collage on paper
