Itaewon
140 x 100 x 5
Acrylic on Canvas
Wherever We Wander by Itaewon is a layered abstract composition that explores movement, navigation, and the architecture of passage. Interlocking planes of translucent color slide across the canvas in intersecting trajectories, creating a spatial field that feels constructed and in motion. The painting suggests a shifting environment rather than a fixed destination, capturing the sensation of teleportation.
The London-based artist’s use of geometric form is tempered by light and transparency. Shapes overlap and dissolve into one another, allowing color to accumulate in measured rhythms. Lines function as guides and lead the eye through layered passages. The composition unfolds gradually, revealing depth through tonal variation and subtle shifts in opacity.
Wherever We Wander recalls elements of constructivism and Bauhaus experimentation, echoing the lyrical abstraction of artists such as Paul Klee. Itaewon’s contemporary sensibility reflects the way space is experienced today in the digital-age.
This painting explores rhythm through spatial movement and directional flow. Here, rhythm is defined by progression and intersection. The work reads like a visual map where rhythm emerges through navigation.
Wherever We Wander reflects the idea that meaning is found in the journey itself. It’s a layered meditation on direction, rhythm, and the spaces we move through.
