Acid Tongue

These paintings depict stacks of colours, sitting in corners or floating on high, but the shapes remain unstable – moving back and forth, shifting and sliding. Colours converse with space, depth and rhythm to create shimmering surfaces. Like much of his most evocative work, Band’s … paintings communicate without recourse to symbolic or associative meanings. In a world devoid of representational cues, Band uses the elements of art to communicate directly to the senses and evoke memories of exquisite timeless and wordless experiences.
