Pause (Diptych)

Descripción

Pause …. Cathy Amato Acrylic on canvas 100 × 150 cm, 2025 “Pause” . invites the viewer to slow down and remain present with the work. It asks for a moment of stillness — to stand before it, look, and allow the painting to reveal itself gradually through experience rather than explanation. Layered colour and textured marks move between control and release, creating a space where emotion quietly unfolds. Blues and softened neutrals are interrupted by subtle contrasts, allowing moments of tension and calm to coexist. The surface holds traces of movement and revision, evidence of a process guided by intuition and feeling. This work is about permission — to pause, to breathe, and to notice what arises in that space. Meaning is not fixed; it shifts with each viewer and each moment of attention. In slowing down, the painting becomes a mirror for reflection, awareness, and inner quiet. A striking addition to any space, it brings a sense of calm to your surroundings.
