Booth-Jones’ latest work ‘Musical Vortex’ is a large diptych painted with acrylic and oil paints on paper. Each half mirrors the other, but not quite, thus generating a tension and energy in the work. The rings tumble across the picture plane, with harmonic waves oscillating back and forth as if visualising the sounds of the motion. The imagery evokes music, flight, heartbeats, and more.
As the artist has said: “Whether a huge mural or an intimate study, I like my art to begin a story, then invite its completion. The imagery should draw you in, then let your imagination roam free. That way you’ll never tire of the work.”
