The painting is a line taken for a journey across the paper (that spans three panels) it is a broken line that represents the pause between the inhale and exhale. The stillness that we can cultivate in our lives by simply observing the breath allowing us to be more mindful and arrive in the now.

It is a call for the guests to take a moment to observe the work. Connect with their breath as they trace the lines and slow things down. Bringing their attention to the present.

This mark was created with a four part breath; inhale, hold, exhale and pause. A yoga breath that is calming and grounding.

I gild the drips of ink either side of the intentional marks, as a signifier of the beauty of imperfection. Control and acceptance.

Ink on Chinese mulberry paper mounted to a Fabriano cartridge (120gsm) substrate on birch panel. Hand embellished with 24 carat gold leaf. Triptych 3 panels @ 900 x 500 x 24mm

Rod McIntosh is an artist with his studio in the midst of the English countryside of rural Kent. He works between Kent and London as an exhibiting artist and is represented by several galleries and consultants working together to build a national and international profile for his work.

He studied figurative sculpture in Sheffield, graduating in 1992. He maintained a dynamic practice alongside a successful Arts Management and academic career until 2009. When he returned full-time to the studio.

His current work as a mark-maker lies within the tradition of drawing. With his body, the breath along with materials, and repetitive often-obsessive processes focus attention to the present. Observing and recording the moment of creation within a continuum.

He speaks of them as;

“Physical meditations, that offers himself, and the viewer, a moment to pause.”
