Waves of Threaded Flame is a monumental 6x5 foot oil-on-canvas work within the Organic Movement series. Utilizing Raj’s signature method of replacing brushes with pigment-soaked threads, the piece features crimson and flame-orange colliding with iridescent purples. This process emphasizes surrender, translating tension into a tactile meditation on rhythm and resilience. Aligning with the material disruption of artists like Lynda Benglis and Pat Steir, the work serves as a fluid counterpoint to digital velocity. Ultimately, the painting avoids literal depiction to evoke raw emotion, offering a bold, human presence where the medium itself becomes a message of nature’s flow.
