Jordan King creates kaleidoscopic paintings that reveal vibrant interpretations of the world. Abstract in form, King often attributes very specific titles to his works, like “Freaky Woman” or “Different Shades.” He also decodes and pays homage to abstract masters like Miro and Kandinsky as part of his practice. His compositions demand steady exploration, during which biomorphic forms, new geometries, and recognizable elements emerge. Faced with King’s work, the density and complexity of his compositions invite deepened modes of observation by the viewer.
