Renowned for his multi-layered, abstract, colourful paintings, Danny Rolph’s seemingly chaotic work often reflects the dynamism of his surroundings. He is inspired by the cities of London, New York and Rome as well as the deserts of West Texas and New Mexico, whose sunsets appear as a recurring motif in the background of his work. His colour choices are instinctive and deliberate, echoing the environment around him. The artist continually interrogates surface and spatial relations via the mediums of triplewall plastic and canvas surfaces, embracing doubt and discovery within the creative process.
For this year’s Cure3 Rolph has created Breezin’, inspired by the 1976 George Benson instrumental using paint and silkscreen in his characteristic colourful, multi-layered abstract manner. His usual exploration of surface tensions and spatial relations is apparent here, and despite the small scale, Rolph sees the cube as a limitless, “expansive and transparent space”. Rolph exhibits internationally and his work is owned by The Met in New York and Tate among others. Inspired by experiences as diverse as a London high-rise, a desert sunset and the Indian Ocean, the artist has responded to the cube’s environment without compromising his investigation into the history of the pictorial.
