Crossing into Stillness

$1,728.00

Crossing into Stillness is set at the hour when the light is doing most of the talking, and the morning absorbs what moves through it without a ripple — the day's work already underway inside a silence that has not yet been asked to give way.

The painting makes its argument in softness. Lilac, rose, and apricot are drawn out in long undulating passes until the sky appears to be exhaling, and the water beneath receives the bridge and all it carries, returned a shade quieter than it was given, the piers standing twice and the colour running between them. Between sky and water the bridge is the only hard edge, and the light softens even that.

Quiet, watered places are where a tired body comes back to itself most readily, and NeuroArts is interested in how much of that a painting can lend a room far from any river. The crossing in the title belongs as much to whoever stands before it as to the train above the water. Something is always being carried across; the water keeps its own counsel either way.
