ABOUT 'IN THE NIGHT GARDEN'
o create this explorative work, Luke has drawn inspiration from the song ‘Night Garden’ by BENEE. Painting predominantly using his cane as his application tool, Luke’s rhythmic movements are made permanently visible on the painting’s surface. The textural strokes can also be appreciated through touch.
VISUAL DESCRIPTION 'IN THE NIGHT GARDEN'
The base of this work combines a smooth layer of blacks and translucent, pastel, purply blues, layered with thick strokes of very translucent turquoise. Overlaying this are thinner brushstrokes of turquoise and white, combined with thicker areas of pale blue.
ABOUT LUKE ABDALLAH
Being a blind artist, Luke Abdallah is incredibly innovative in his artistic methodologies and application techniques, often using his white cane as an accessible and expressive application tool. By fitting a cut tennis ball to the ball of his cane and dipping it in paint, Luke is able to map his movements with his signature ‘push & pull’ technique, providing a visual & textural artwork for his audience to explore.
