Tony Fey's Textural Tiles

A commanding forty-inch square composition, Tony Fey's Textural Tiles arrives hand-crafted in paper and acrylic on framed canvas, its considerable five-inch depth lending the work an almost sculptural insistence on the wall. The layered surface plays with light and shadow in the manner of fine architectural relief, rewarding close inspection without surrendering its quiet authority from across the room. It is the kind of piece that anchors a room rather than merely decorating it — a considered gesture toward the idea that art and object need not be separate conversations.
