Monochromatic Pigment Print on Metal 24”x36”
Taken at the campus headquarters of a previous employer, this striking vertical composition captures the minimalist elegance of brutalist architecture, beautifully framing a repeating rhythm of geometric forms against the sweeping grandeur of a textured concrete facade.
Visual Elements & Composition
The Geometric Totem: Vertically aligned down the center of the frame is a stark sequence of three circular stone inserts embedded within square cutouts. These precise, contrasting shapes serve as a compelling, graphic focal point that tells a story of mathematical order and intentional design.
The Grid Line Architecture: A crisp network of deep, incised horizontal and vertical grout lines breaks brilliantly through the textured concrete face. These structural joints cast subtle paths of shadow across the entire landscape, dividing the raw surface into a balanced grid of rectangular panels.
The Textured Canvas: The vast, porous concrete wall dominates the composition, acting as a massive canvas that catches the ambient daylight. The fine, grainy texture of the material creates a subtle gradient that darkens toward the bottom, drawing the viewer's eye upward across the architectural details toward the top of the frame.
Mood & Material Expression
Presented as a metal print, Circles in Squares takes on an extraordinary, lifelike depth. The high-gloss finish of the aluminum substrate will allow the bright stone circles and the exposed highlights of the concrete texture to intensely gleam, creating the illusion that the print itself is radiating a cool, architectural light. The fine, tactile details of the speckled surface will be rendered with incredible clarity, while the dark, recessed shadows within the square cutouts will pop with perfect contrast against the brighter panels. The medium transforms the industrial wall into a dynamic mirror of shifting ambient light.
