'Dots 15' abstract painting by Nicki MacRae

Dots No15

Dots is a vibrant and varied series of abstract paintings exploring the relationship between transparency and opacity, and plays with the idea of ‘spy holes’. It plays with colour, simulated and physical texture and makes intensive use of spray paints and stencilling. It’s roots are in my love of collecting ‘many alike’ objects into complex arrangements. …

Small square format canvas with black ground covered in small dots with textural marks, in different sizes in bright purples, blues, reds, yellows. Set into a tray frame painted the same black as the canvas.
