Description
About This Painting
Pentagon Emergence is an original pentagon geometric abstract painting exploring the relationship between two of geometry’s most compelling forms — the pentagon and the circle. A perfectly balanced pentagon becomes a faceted three-dimensional structure, its intersecting planes suggesting folded architecture and crystalline form.
The composition carries a sense of emergence — as though the form is in the process of becoming, pushing outward from a central logic into something more complex and dimensional. Planes of cool and warm tones shift across the surface, creating depth and the illusion of volume through careful colour modulation rather than conventional shading.
Geometry as Subject
In this work, geometry is not simply a formal device — it is the subject itself. The pentagon, rarely the protagonist in abstract art, is given space to expand and reveal its structural possibilities. The result is a painting that feels both mathematically grounded and intuitively alive.
Norah Kennedy’s interest in geometric form draws on traditions of constructivism and cubism while remaining rooted in a personal, contemporary sensibility. Each painting in this vein is the result of careful drawing, considered composition, and slow, deliberate painting.
For Collectors of Geometric Abstract Art
Pentagon Emergence is ideal for collectors who appreciate the intersection of mathematical thinking and painterly craft. It suits contemporary interiors — offices, studies, living areas — where considered, original art is valued.
This is a unique original artwork, hand-painted in the artist’s Irish studio. It arrives ready to hang and includes a certificate of authenticity.
