About the Item
Artist Comments
I call this technique 'canvas mosaic' which I developed over the last nine years. The square shapes are cut and painted pieces of canvas fabric that I adhered to the stretched canvas. Initially inspired by digital pixels, but harkens back to traditional mosaic making. In Japan, we use red string as a metaphoric expression of a connection by fate, like someone you are meant to be with. I always love the image of it and used the theme for my painting. It's an abstract work that can be perceived in many different ways, so I don't want to limit the viewer's imagination by explaining too much of what's in the image.
About the Artist
Tomo Mori finds herself drawn to images that are melting, dripping, streaming and flowing. Her process is extremely meticulous yet spontaneous in its execution, allowing natural instinct to guide the creativity and fluidity of the work. Tomo's signature technique is collage made of canvas on canvas, a style that adds depth and dimension to her work. Born in Osaka, Japan, her family moved to Tokyo when she was four, where she recalls happy family memories under the cherry blossoms. She is now based in New York, and when she's not making art, Tomo likes spending time with her family and dancing.

- CC2024 - Blue Yellow Black and White Contemporary Geometric AbstractionBy Zach TouchonLocated in Beverly Hills, CAThis work is a combination of two major series created by the artist - "Chaos and Control Theory" and "Geometric Abstraction" Series. It was created with the pages from an Oxford Dictionary of Quotations. This technique gives a special character to the work - you can play with it asking questions, pointing to any part of the work, and you will get a meaningful phrase or a word. The work has black, white, and grey colors with blue, yellow, orange, and black geometric forms on the top. Great for the modern interior. -- "Chaos and Control Theory" Series is about depth and space. It’s about information overload, and what information looks like when you take out a meaning. I create lots of layers, using found materials and printed materials. I do an abstract expressionism painting on a surface first before I apply the printed and found materials. And then I begin to organize the surface, ultimately thinking about balance and flow and how the piece is going to contribute to a space it is going to be hanging in. Within the "Geometric Abstraction" series, the image happens in a moment - I create geometric forms, combining them in eccentric and catchy compositions. Then I spend hours and hours perfecting the craftsmanship and attention to details and adjusting colors to create more balance and flow, more depth and space. Even though the works are two-dimensional, a viewer can look into them, can see “layers”. -- Zach Touchon is an American contemporary abstract expressionist artist and muralist based in Los Angeles, CA. Besides that, Touchon is also an actor, a singer, a screenwriter, and a writer. Zach Touchon is an artist in the second generation. By rethinking abstract expressionism ideas, using different media he creates large abstract artwork...Category
