Yield | Original

Yield surrenders. Not out of weakness, but out of trust.

Deep blue slowly shifts towards soft pink-mauve. Two worlds meet, and neither wins. The transition is the work. Soft, inevitable, like ice deciding to melt.

A work that softens the space around it.

About the technique

This work begins with acrylic paint. Layer upon layer, built up and dried, until the canvas has its own weight. Then comes the silicone. Not mixed with the paint, but applied as separate layers on top of the dried surface. The silicone creates a tangible relief that feels permanently rubbery — soft, alive, never hard. The work can be seen, but also felt. That touching is not incidental; it is part of the work itself.

Because the light always falls differently on the relief, the work looks different during the day than in the evening, and changes with every light source in the room. Seeing and feeling together complete the experience.
