FORM Original by Mary f. Harrison
Felt tip marker pen on canvas
The Form is a prime factor in a piece of art. To describe it, apart from as a simple blank canvas or white square, per Malevitch, it has to have an outline, separating it from its surrounding (negative) space
This is the artist’s objective then, to divine the Form within.Here, black felt tip marker working directly onto it, exposes the positive and negative spaces of a small canvas square.
The image has no other purpose, except to inhabit this particular place.
The dramatic impact of the piece comes from its simplicity. More detail or added colour would be unnecessary, rendering the image fussy and or superfluous.
