Mary Hong’s Floating Away

A panoramic canvas of exceptional scale, Mary Hong's Floating Away arrives from John Richard's collection as a work that commands the wall with the quiet authority of still water at dusk. The vitreous finish lends the surface an inner luminosity, while silver leaf elements catch and diffuse light across its considerable breadth, animating the composition through the day. Tempered glass protects the work without diminishing its presence, preserving the artist's layered atmosphere behind a surface as considered as the piece itself.
