David Moore "Ballinglen Series"
Robert Steele Gallery
This event has ended.
The Ballinglen Series is inspired by travels in Ireland and a residency at the Ballinglen Arts Foundation, Ballycastle, County Mayo, Ireland. Upon returning to the U.S. with a suitcase full of works on paper, I began a series of large oil paintings entitled "Ceide Field". Measuring up to 60 inches and just off-square, the paintings emphasize the Irish landscape through abstract spacial loops and repeated mark making. Influenced by the peat bogs of the "Ceide Field" County Mayo, the coastal rock formations in Easky, County Sligo, the Slieve League cliffs of County Donegal, and the landscape of the Burren, County Clare, this work continues my exploration of the daily ritual of place, realized in paint by dramatic lines, gesture, and color.
