About

Second Story 7 continues Thompson's inventive use of reclaimed acrylic paint, arranging salvaged fragments across a ground with a quietly architectural quality. Each piece occupies its own area of space, while the relationships between them create subtle changes in depth, rhythm and visual tension. The composition feels deliberately spacious, allowing individual fragments to retain their identity while contributing to the whole.

The scattered forms drift, gather and pause in relation to one another. Their varied edges and surfaces introduce a tactile quality, while the restrained arrangement prevents the work from becoming visually crowded. Thompson's intuitive approach is particularly evident here, with the composition feeling discovered through the material rather than imposed upon it.

The result is a poised and contemplative work about fragments finding a new place within a larger whole. Its quiet balance gives the reclaimed materials a sense of importance, transforming what was once leftover into something considered and complete. Second Story 7 is a distinctive contemporary work that brings material experimentation, renewal and subtle spatial relationships together.
