WORKS

Three paintings. Three ways into James Kenton Pierce’s visual language. Begin with the whole. Move closer. Follow the rhythm.

Data Steam, an abstract painting by James Kenton Pierce with sweeping blue, grey, red, and white linear forms.

03 / LUMEN

Color in evolution.

A study in change: high chroma moving toward something quieter and more natural. The rhythm remains.

Lumen · 12 × 16 inches

01 / DATA STEAM

Data, envisioned as movement.

James began by imagining what data looks like. Lines gather, cross, and disperse.

Data Steam · Oil on linen · 24 × 36 inches

Mother Tongue, an abstract painting by James Kenton Pierce with layered linear gestures on a pale ground.

02 / MOTHER TONGUE

Rhythm before language.

“I only feel a rhythm.”

Stay with the line as it changes direction. Meaning arrives through movement.

Mother Tongue

Lumen, an abstract painting by James Kenton Pierce with luminous coral, yellow, blue, and green gestures on black.
