In Construction Zone, I wanted to capture the raw, mechanical friction and hazard-bright energy of a city landscape in constant transition.
The composition is split along a stark diagonal, balancing a luminous caution-yellow channel on the left against heavy, structured blocks of deep purple, crimson red, and dense black on the right. Thick, impasto brushstrokes and heavy tool wipes sweep across the surface, creating an industrial rhythm of barrier-like curves and layered machinery that draw the viewer straight into the active site.
Working in oil on paper, the absorbent texture grounds the heavy paint layers while allowing the rough, energetic tool marks to stand out with raw intensity. Construction Zone is about that gritty, high-visibility tension where raw materials and urban progress collide.
