Atmospheric Illusion

Based on something not true, the illusion of land, and sea, and sky might be wrongly interpreted by a first glance.

L. Mould "Atmospheric Illusion" (2021, canvas 20 x 24)

It is in appearance only that the impression of colours, forms and light are seen as reality.

The landscape features most prominently in the body of my work. It is a landscape of suggestion, rather than a faithful figurative rendering; it is a landscape of fiction and abstraction. Major influences on my work have been the Canadian landscape, the tropical forest of the Congo and the land of the Mediterranean/Middle East. Born in Exeter, Ontario,I studied at the University of Prince Edward Island, McGill University in Montreal and the Université du Québec à Trois Rivières. I always ask one question; when does the unconventional become so utterly conventional as to become uninteresting - dull in fact? I hope these are not dull whatever else they are. Let me know what you think.

Abstraction

The ultimate reflection about something that doesn't exist.

Tension in the Lines: Control is an Illusion

I pursue the abstracted volumes of control.

Ink drawing (5.5"x4.25")

But control is an illusion, I'm sure of it.

Skirting the Area

Perhaps I'll think of something to say if I look at it long enough.

Still Life in the Library

Layers of sequence and consequence, of grace and angularity -- awkward views looking out at the world.

Drawing LMould 30 April 2017

A space that is so inward and regardless of platform, casts its net wide and its web out. Seemingly still but always in motion.

Gold Leaf

There are angular complexities stabilizing the flow through our complicated nature.

Gold Leaf (papiers colles 8" x 5.5")

Our narratives tell these tales. Some are taller than others.

Lift Off

Lifting off from what and to go where?

Papiers Colles with ink (6" x 4")

Indeed suspension keeps us going but will we know when we get there?

Stasis

Searching for movement.
