Warm hues of orange and brown swirl to create abstract, intertwined forms. A tactile and layered effect gives the visual a rich, textured depth.
"From Vulnerability to Defiance?: An Ambiguous Form Emerging Against the Backdrop of Judgment" © Bob Orsillo
"Through heavy impasto and expressive figuration, this painting delves into the complexities of vulnerability and societal scrutiny. The nude figures are not intended to be sexual but rather to represent the universal human state of being exposed. The posture of one figure suggests exhaustion, while the other's ambiguous presentation invites viewers to consider themes of gender and the struggle against prejudice. The presence of unseen hands performing a gesture of listing or judgment underscores the weight of external evaluation."
Created in 1996. The original hangs in Church in Boston.
