Original painting in gouache and ink on paper.
"From an ongoing body of work exploring themes of hope, anxiety and failed utopias. The image makes reference to resort architecture and the idealism espoused by aspects of the Modern movement in the twentieth century."
Ed Saye’s paintings hold the strange beauty of a world still running its rituals after the meaning has shifted. Figures walk, gather, hold small suns in their hands, unaware of how altered the air has become. The colour hums at a frequency between reverence and re-coding - radiant, hyperreal, irresistible - the saturation dial turned just past natural, where colour starts to behave as energy instead of pigment. His work has evolved with rare coherence, each canvas reorganising itself from within, as though the paint were recalibrating to each new atmosphere - the pigment edging toward another register entirely.
