Description
A field that wants but cannot move. Bitter considers what happens when envy meets exhaustion; the particular ache of wanting something you cannot bring yourself to reach for. Desire without momentum. Longing without action.
Teal rhinestones cover the ground while hematite creeps up from below, heavy and inert, the weight of sloth moving through the wanting of envy. The surface does not resolve. Neither does the feeling.
Framing
The artwork is presented in a simple floating frame for photography and safe transit. This framing is not intended as a permanent design element and may be replaced to suit the collector’s space.
Materials
Acrylic, canvas, glass rhinestones, adhesive.
Technique
A painted ground establishes the base field, over which hundreds of rhinestones are hand-placed one by one to create a dense reflective surface. The interaction between matte paint and faceted stone allows light, texture, and depth to shift with the viewer’s movement.
Shipping and Inclusions
Shipping is included with all acquisitions. Each work is secured in custom-built packaging or professional crating, determined by the specific dimensions and structural requirements of the piece. Artwork is accompanied by a signed Certificate of Authenticity. To ensure the longevity of the work, a curated conservation kit is included. This contains a selection of glass rhinestones in every size utilized on the specific panel, housed in glassine envelopes for future professional conservation or repair if ever required.
