Lucy Bull’s artwork, particularly her 2020 painting "16:10," embodies a vivid blend of tuned-up Impressionism and psychedelic Surrealism, engaging viewers with its dynamic, trance-inducing tessellations of colors like vermillion and neon yellow.

Standing nearly eight feet tall, the painting dominates space, transporting observers into a prismatic dreamscape that challenges and expands the boundaries of abstract art.

Represented by David Kordansky Gallery, Bull’s meticulous technique involves layering up to twenty coats of paint and then selectively removing parts to reveal a complex, textured interplay of color and form that recalls the method of Max Ernst.

This process, as Bull describes, is like an excavation, unearthing older marks to bring them to the foreground, creating a visual rhythm that pulses with organic life and invites viewers into expansive new realms of experience where the internal and external worlds converge in a vibrant spectacle of chroma and texture.
