Maja Gunnarsdottir's Scatter

A work of considered quietude, Maja Gunnarsdottir's Scatter arrives through John Richard with the layered sensibility of a piece that rewards prolonged looking — linen and acrylic worked beneath a gold leaf finish that lends the composition its particular luminosity. At thirty-six inches tall and forty-six wide, the scale is confident without dominating, sized to anchor a wall rather than merely occupy it. The interplay of fabric and metallic surface creates a textural dialogue that shifts with the light, ensuring the work reads differently from morning to evening.
