Description |
"Cooper Fort" depicts an interior scene with a blanket fort in the center of a room. Williams focuses on dramatic lighting from several different vantage points, and how the light affects the surrounding area. A light source is inside the blanket fort, creating a glowing effect throughout the room. Williams' intimate, tightly-painted works often portray buildings such as gas stations, bungalows, and the environments surrounding these structures. These tableaux of American life, while unremarkable in themselves, are elevated by Williams' adept handling of light and mood. |
