'Fragmented Blue' - Tharien Smith

Dimensions: 95 x 165 cm (37.4 x 65 inches)

Medium: Mixed media on canvas

'Fragmented Blue' is an expansive and technically complex mixed-media work on canvas that highlights Tharien Smith's ability to deconstruct domestic and natural environments into a geometric, semi-abstracted vision. The artwork measures 95 cm (Height) x 165 cm (Width) and offers a bold, architectural presence on a large-scale canvas.

The composition is a sophisticated grid of interlocking panels and vertical strips, creating a sense of looking through a fractured lens or a series of windows. While the overall effect is one of abstraction, close observation reveals organic textures, leafy silhouettes, and structural lines that suggest an interior space merging with an outdoor landscape. The palette is anchored by deep, resonant blues—ranging from navy to cerulean—contrasted against warm sandy tones, terracotta, and pale creams.

Smith uses a variety of mark-making techniques, from smooth colour fields to scratched, tactile surfaces, to evoke the layered nature of perception. This piece serves as a striking focal point, inviting the viewer to find order and narrative within its rhythmic, blue-infused fragments.
