Rainbow Static 8

2003

"Rainbow Static 8" is an abstract drawing composed of geometrical renderings that suggest a technical process of action and reaction. It is one of a series of abstract works done by Wiliam Cummins that explore the relationships between structured lines against blended colour schemes.

In the 2006 National Art Gallery Committee (NAGC) catalogue, Therese Hadchity writes that "Cummins' oeuvre has been an unusually focused and consistent one, one of almost compulsive repetitions, of certain shapes and formal constellations frequently revisited, his works have nearly always been restricted to standard formats, limited colour-ranges. These repetitions can perhaps be likened to a meditation or a 'quest' and the oeuvre's essential dynamic, therefore, is not one of clashing energies, but of rushing movements halted or compensated for by opposing forces, and thus a dialogue of counter-points and balances."
