“Jigsaw' gathers fragments of the moment and renders them eternal in layered abstraction.”
Jigsaw (2024) is a painting of assembly — a visual meditation on how we piece meaning together. This 48 x 48 inch mixed media painting on wood from the Playful Abstraction collection turns the structure of a puzzle into metaphor. The work is both playful and contemplative, fractured and composed.
The composition is defined by interlocking abstract forms — each shape distinct but incomplete. Painted in vibrant jewel tones — cobalt, saffron, emerald — and layered with texture, resin, and gold foil, the pieces feel as though they are in the process of joining or falling apart. No borders, no corners — just partial fits and shifting edges.
I painted Jigsaw during a period of inner reorganization. So many thoughts, projects, identities — all moving, none fully resolved. The puzzle became a fitting symbol. Not of solving, but of being in process.
The piece draws visual parallels to the modular explorations of Frank Stella and the spatial experimentation of Sarah Morris. Like them, I use geometry to evoke something emotional — structure as feeling.
Jigsaw isn’t about completion. It’s about coherence in motion — the beauty of coming together even when the picture isn’t clear.
