Rather than relying on conventional modelling, shifts in surface, colour and texture establish the body and allow sections of it to move between solidity and abstraction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGold appears throughout the composition not simply as embellishment, but as interruption, catching light, breaking through darker passages and altering the work as the viewing position changes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere is confidence in the figure's physical presence, but also stillness. Her closed eyes and extended posture resist a fixed narrative, leaving the emotional state deliberately unresolved.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWithin Lisa Rees' evolving practice, The Recline forms a bridge between her earlier figurative work and a growing interest in abstraction, materiality and reducing the figure to its most expressive elements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSurface \u0026amp; Material\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt through acrylic, mixed media, dimensional passages and hand-applied 23K genuine gold leaf, The Recline has a distinctly tactile surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChanges in relief become particularly visible under directional light, while the gold shifts between bright reflection and muted warmth as the viewer moves around the work.
