White Prison
Peter Halley's *White Prison* employs his signature geometric vocabulary of stark, cell-like squares and connecting conduits rendered in acrylic and Roll-A-Tex on canvas. The textured surface created by the Roll-A-Tex additive lends a gritty, industrial quality to the otherwise reductive composition, reinforcing themes of confinement and social control embedded within Halley's Neo-Geo framework. The work's stark palette underscores the artist's critique of the hidden systems and structures that define modern life.
