Portal allows the viewer a glimpse of the landscape in which it sits. The colours of the landscape are enhanced by their relationship with the work. In particular, the greens of grass, trees and plantlife is intensified alongside the red of this work.
The colour is dynamic and energising. Even surrounded by snow, it blazes like a warm fire.
Portal acts as a framing device, focussing the attention, for example, on leaf form and growth patterns, the intensity of flower colours or a glimpse of the distant horizon – it is all a matter of placement.
Portal celebrates ‘place’. Its power partly lies in acting as a frame through which what is seen suggests kinship with painting. It can be sited to act as a focus on a ‘still life’, a ‘flower study’, a ‘pastoral scene’ – or a rather more formal contemporary setting, such as complementing the lines of a building. How you enhance your very own piece of the outdoors is your choice.
