Collection: Suspended Paintings

The suspended paintings are created using two different approaches. In one, the painted surface is displayed at the front of the work; in the other, the paint is revealed from the side. Despite these variations, both methods share the same construction: the canvas is tacked to a wooden support, allowing it to hang freely while holding the paint.
