JILL MIRZA‘Red Walls with Cats’14 x 18 in / 35.6 x 45.7 cm Acrylic on Canvas 2015
The crumbling walls to be found on abandoned buildings are often full of patternand strange shapes. This image of cats on the steps of a vivid dilapidated building inGreece, is full of rhythm, the cats bodies tumbling down echoing the shapes found in theold plaster. The strong background colours act as a camouflage for the cats, making thepainting more about abstract shapes than about imagery.
