Abstract Shapes Build Jason Boyd Kinsella’s Expressiveness and Unique Characters – Huge
Jason Boyd Kinsella calls herself “the inner collector.” The Toronto-born Oslo artist (formerly) assembles shapes and colors seems to emerge from this lineage, with his impeccable ability to capture specific human emotions through a fully displayed abstract form.
Alchemy of eternal self is Kinsella’s latest work and continues his bold portraiture focused on the foundations of our inner lives. A few feet tall, geometric figures looming than most viewers, their bold personality invites the encounter.
Kinsella magnified in some of the works in the series, including “Luna” and his titular hunchback character. As she turned toward the frame, her body was round, with white bob and eternal frowning, her long fingers reached to the ground. In addition to facial expressions, the artist explores body language and turns to art history to draw on the curvy posture of the lady from Jean-François Millet’s “The Gleaners”. The large paintings were completed in 1857 and expressed sympathy for the lowest classes and showed their basic labor.
In this way, Kinsella puzzles together in time and enduring, prompting connections through his Cubist paintings, pure feelings and expressions that no matter how different we appear, we are made of the same emotional DNA.
Alchemy of eternal self It will be carried out until October 24 on perrotin in Shanghai. Keep up with Kinsella’s work on his website and Instagram.
