One of the foremost abstractionists working today, Gus Albor has been exploring the capacity of color to fashion a realm of sensation and insight. In this work, Albor faces the abyssal void of meaninglessness in order to formulate new meaning beyond conventional and traditional forms of language and communication. With the presence of an overarching use of white, the work shows how irreconcilable differences, despite the fact that each side has been made impure by the other, are merely two sides of the same coin. This painting prompts a more conceptual version of duality without the mystical obfuscation. What the work achieves is a bold and illuminating statement on how fundamental separateness of light and dark is not an objective truth, but an obfuscation of a truly transcendental reality.
