This expressive work by Marcelle Ferron, painted in 1972, captures the artist at a pivotal moment as she transitioned
from the spontaneity of Automatism toward a more structured yet equally dynamic visual language.
Rich passages of gold-toned ground are animated by sweeping gestures of deep blue, black,
and subtle accents of red, creating a powerful interplay between light and movement.
The composition balances raw energy with a growing sense of verticality and form,
reflecting Ferron’s increasing interest in luminosity and architectural presence—
qualities that would later define her celebrated glass installations.
