Abstract Composition 029

CC 029, a digital print on 100% Rag paper, Created for 9h contemporary, crafted in 2024, emerges as a compelling exploration of the intersections between two-dimensional representation and three-dimensional form. This piece uniquely subverts traditional notions of spatial organisation by presenting an abstract 3D gridded lattice, which is positioned at a 45-degree angle, challenging the typical square grid seen in conventional compositions.

The visual style of CC 029 blurs the distinctions between drawing and sculpture, creating a complex visual narrative that is both flat and voluminous. This duality is heightened by the monochromatic color palette, which is subtly varied within the intricate patterns of the grid, adding a dynamic visual texture that enhances the depth and intricacy of the piece.

Textures in CC 029 echo this complexity; the work features a repeating three-dimensional form that, despite its depth, is presented in a manner that maintains a flat appearance. This juxtaposition creates a striking contrast, reinforcing the artwork's sculptural qualities while rooted in a two-dimensional medium.

CC 029 effect is one of contemplation and admiration for its architectural quality, evoking the feel of a photograph capturing the essence of a sculpture. The use of subtle white tones and a mantra-like repeating pattern imparts a serene, almost meditative quality to the work, inviting viewers to engage with it on a deeper, introspective level.

Influenced by minimalist artists such as Sol LeWitt and Donald Judd, CC 029 draws heavily on minimalist principles, focusing on simplicity in form and a restrained use of colour. This piece reflects a philosophical alignment with minimalism, emphasising the impact of repeating patterns and the subtle shifts in colour that speak more to the nuances of perception rather than overt visual drama.

In conclusion, "CC 029" is a subtle yet profound artwork that stands as a testament to the power of minimalism in contemporary digital art. By marrying the aesthetic of sculpture with digital print techniques, 9h contemporary challenges traditional boundaries and invites viewers to reconsider the relationship between dimensionality and form in art. This work serves not only as a visual experience but also as a conceptual gateway into the minimalist exploration of space and repetition.
