Title: Origins — Cobalt
Series: Third Series — Origins
Drawing date: April–July 2014
Edition: Open edition — this framed canvas format is discontinued
Medium: Archival giclée fine-art reproduction on 100% cotton 380 gsm textured canvas with high-quality gesso coating, printed with archival pigment inks and finished with four coats of art varnish
Framed size: 59.5 × 63 cm
Orientation: Near-square portrait format
Framing: Canvas stretched on kiln-dried plantation-pine stretcher bars and presented in a white 45 × 10 mm L-shaped timber floating frame
Availability: One framed display-stock example
Regular price: AUD $750
Sale price: AUD $300 — 60% OFF
Condition note: This display-stock example has several minor cosmetic marks and scratches to the white floating frame from previous display. They are not especially noticeable under normal viewing conditions and do not materially affect the presentation of the artwork. The reduced sale price reflects this condition.
Origins — Cobalt is a cropped near-square colour derivative from Third Series — Origins, concentrating the intricate circular architecture and symbolic density of the larger composition into a richly saturated format.
The work is dominated by cobalt, ultramarine and deep navy blue, illuminated by turquoise, cyan, violet, magenta and white. A large central circular structure contains layered orbital and atom-like geometries, surrounded by successive fields of smaller circles, symbols and finely repeated forms. Bright turquoise helix-like structures extend inward from the edges and corners, visually connecting the central formation with the densely populated surrounding field.
From a distance, the composition reads as a luminous geometric mandala. At closer range, it reveals script-bearing circles, recurring geometric structures and numerous finely layered details. These elements reflect the wider visual language of Origins, whose original composition is built around concentric generation, script-filled circular units, helical structures and corner vortices.
This particular 59.5 × 63 cm framed canvas presentation has now been discontinued. This is one of the final framed display-stock examples, and no further examples will be produced in this particular canvas-and-framing format.
Photography note: Product photographs show the actual framed display-stock artwork. Ambient lighting, camera settings and viewing angle may affect apparent colour and contrast. The physical canvas is more vibrant and detailed when viewed directly.
