Raspberry Ice 1.5m x 1.2m

A fusion of structure and spontaneity, Raspberry Ice is both a visual and sensory experience—an abstract reflection of memory, taste, and time. Layers of crisp whites and playful pastels are punctuated by bold raspberry hues, evoking the fleeting joy of childhood summers: sticky fingers, melting ice cream, the tart-sweet burst of a raspberry on the tongue.

This piece is a dialogue between control and release, where geometric forms dissolve into fluid drips, much like a melting cone on a warm day. The painting’s layered history, with remnants of past marks peeking through, mirrors the way memories resurface—sometimes vivid, sometimes blurred by time. There’s an energy of both nostalgia and movement here, a push and pull between the structured and the organic, much like the way childhood impressions shape our present selves.

Just as a familiar flavor can transport us to another time, Raspberry Ice invites the viewer to linger, to explore its textures, and to find their own recollections within its layers.
