Peter Halley — Here and There
Peter Halley

Here and There

2011

Peter Halley's *Here and There* features his signature geometric vocabulary of cells and conduits rendered in bold, flat planes of acrylic and luminous pearlescent acrylic. The addition of Roll-a-Tex creates a tactile, stucco-like surface that contrasts with the smooth, industrialized aesthetic of the forms. Halley's work draws on Neo-Geo abstraction to critique the systems and structures of modern society.

Medium
acrylic, pearlescent acrylic and Roll-a-Tex on canvas
