Curtain (2002-7) is a radiant painting saturated in yellow and burnt orange, glowing with Turner-esque intensity and heat. Beneath the incandescent swathes of rich red pigment that dominate the top of the composition, a darker band of onyx black and blue sweeps across the central space. From this, pointillist dots of turning pigment–comets or molten rocks–cascade down, liberating space that, enriched by the underlying unprimed wood grain, carries its own frenetic and rhythmic energy.
