Untitled 76 (Leap of Freedom)

This painting channels a horse’s surge of will into a fractured arena of ochres and slate, where angular planes press inward like a man‑made labyrinth against living muscle. Broad, urgent strokes carve the white body from the ground, while the dark mane whips through space as a calligraphic storm—an anatomy of motion more than a portrait. Light is treated as abrasion rather than glow, scraping highlights across the flank to suggest endurance under strain, as if the animal’s strength is being tested by the very geometry that contains it. The resulting tension reads as a metaphor for freedom negotiating enclosure, vitality insisting on its own rhythm amid constructed boundaries.
