Look Into My Eyes I

A marked departure from his usual dark metallic and natural tones, this vibrant hand-varnished boxed canvas by Dan Lane perfectly captures the graphic three-dimensionality of his original wall sculpture as well as its striking colours. Part of his 2021 collection, In The Empty Spaces, this artwork draws upon the artist's experiences in UK lockdown and you can view his second artwork alongside its partner here.

Alongside his research into colour theory, Dan was inspired by the street art he encountered on his daily walks and the transformative qualities they had on otherwise "empty spaces". He created a series of intricate designs and drawings before manipulating individual sheets of resin to form his sculptural form; heating, moulding, and cutting according only to his own aesthetic vision. Contrasting swathes of light and bright colour was then added in up to four coats each before mounting them to a glossy black board deliberately tinted by his spray paint and sealed with a smoky resin finish.
