Dance Around In Your Bones
Size:44 x 44 in.
"Dance Around In Your Bones" by Lee Ellis is a compelling 39" x 39" mixed media painting that encapsulates the artist's dynamic and expressive style. The artwork features a skeletal figure in motion, suggesting a dance, against a vibrant and complex background of blue, red, and earthy tones. The figure's skeletal form is detailed with white and light blue hues, creating a stark contrast against the richly saturated colours of the background. The scene is fragmented by geometric patterns and textured surfaces, evoking a sense of chaos and movement.
Lee Ellis, a multimedia artist known for his expressive abstract portraits, combines elements of painting, drawing, and printmaking in this piece, resulting in a rich, bold, and emotional work of art. His use of saturated colours and heavy brushwork, reminiscent of Francis Bacon’s visceral style, conveys the raw emotion and inner turmoil of his characters. After graduating from the University of the West of England in 2006 with a degree in Graphic Design, Ellis transitioned from design to fine art, driven by the unrestrained nature of painting. "Dance Around In Your Bones" is a testament to Ellis's innovative approach and his constant experimentation with various mediums, reflecting the energetic and process-led nature of his art.
