2025 A Place in the World
Kathy Swift, Crossroads in Motion
16" x 16", Acrylic on Cradled Panel,
This abstract piece reimagines a bustling street scene, where movement and structure blur into a rhythm of color and line. The layered yellows sweep like sunlit crosswalks, while the angled blocks of blue and gray suggest buildings leaning into one another, their shadows stretching across the pavement. Amid the flowing curves and intersecting grids, there’s a sense of both chaos and harmony—cars, people, and architecture weaving together into a single pulse of energy. The viewer is invited to step into the motion, to feel the shifting perspectives of a street alive with stories, where every corner holds its own direction and possibility.
