As a timeless organizing principle, geometry is the underlying matrix or architecture of all Gudrun Metes-Frady's work. She is drawn to its symmetry and quasi-symmetry and the limitless potential to create her own world. Her Work work is about clarity and structure, pared down to essential forms. In her recent paintings and drawings, She uses metallic pigments, like aluminum and graphite. She also uses mica particles mixed with her colors to affect a kinetic quality of illusory motion depending from which angle the work is seen. Metes-Frady is very interested in exploring physical facts and psychic affect of color and form with this process. She works towards the instant the work has its own center, its own logic, physically and intellectually.

This work is ink and acrylic on mylar and measures 19"x24".
