AUTOMATIC STILETTO
Combine painting-acrylic and mixed media utilizing affixed knife and consumerism reference.
24 x 24 in. (60.9 x 60.9 cm)
Incorporating a modern switchblade knife affixed directly to the painted surface, Automatic Stiletto functions as both a physical object and compositional anchor. Positioned horizontally across the lower portion of the composition, the knife is set against a field of sharply divided geometric color planes. The use of yellow dominating the central ground, intersected by red, blue, green, and black shapes outlined in bold black lines create a dynamic backdrop that emphasizes the clean, linear precision of the knife. The object is presented in a direct, almost catalog-like manner, allowing attention to rest on its form, material, and construction while remaining integrated within the broader visual structure of the painting.
