Martha Jungwirth Metope XIV, 2021
Metope XIV (2021) is one of a number of works that reference ancient Greek architecture. Its dynamic composition exteriorises the idea of missing visual links between imagination and reality, emerging from Jungwirth’s fluid painterly process which is situated at the transition from a material to a transcendent world. The artist’s works are firmly anchored in the world around her, which she channels onto the paper in ‘a flow undisturbed by reflection’.
