Work from ‘Limpet Grazing Tracks’, digital abstract paintings by Nicki MacRae, 2023.

Digital abstract painting of tall portrait orientation, with a dark grey ground, where the same mark is repeated over and over throughout the space. A set of five concentric lines, longer than wide, are inspired by the grooves made by mollusk limpets the feeding on rocks. These are arranged in fan shaped arrays with many such marks side by side. These fans are placed around in different directions, creating a repeating design that suggests order and harmony, but still retains an asymmetric element. The lines are coloured black, however through a central diagonal stripe zone, they are all coloured soft pastel greens oranges and beiges.
