Bold, heat-soaked colour spreads and slips across the surface, as if the painting itself is dissolving in the warmth of summer. At its centre, a faceless grey figure emerges, surrounded by restless marks, gestures and dripping paint. The figure feels momentary and unstable, melting into view before slipping back into ambiguity, where form hovers between presence and disappearance.

The artist discusses how her figures reveal themselves to her while she works the canvas. Rather than alluding to specific characters the forms appear ambiguous and free of a fixed identity. ‘Figures coagulate as fragments of sculpture or restless spirits, momentarily visible through a fracture in the veil. An ethereal hand reaches up from moss-green depths, while the features of a face become apparent in the absent space Loren carves from her paint. Under the power of Loren’s spell, paint is alchemical, oscillating between liquid and solid, transparent, and opaque, invoking figure and form.
