Roy Osborne (1948-)

Chromotopia 31 (Dart) (2014)

Acrylic paint on canvas
100 x 100 cm

A striking angular composition quite distinct from the more circular Chromotopia works. Bands of pink, red, olive, orange and pale blue form a repeated dart-like structure, creating the illusion of folded planes and directional movement across the square.

The work has a strong architectural presence, with a palette that feels warm, graphic and slightly softened. It would sit well in an interior where pattern, colour and geometry are intended to feel purposeful rather than decorative alone.
