Portal 14-1

Christine Romanell’s “Portal 14-1” is a captivating exploration of form and color. A circular frame, meticulously constructed from laser-cut wood and painted in a vibrant gradient of greens, yellows, and oranges, creates a dynamic sense of depth. The intricate geometric patterns and overlapping layers suggest a portal or gateway to another dimension, inviting the viewer to step through and explore the unknown.

The interplay of light and shadow on the textured surface adds further dimension to this visually engaging piece. The central motif, a luminous yellow orb framed by a purple ring, suggests a celestial body or a source of energy. Romanell’s skillful use of color and form creates a captivating visual experience. The bold, contrasting colors and intricate geometric patterns evoke a sense of energy and vitality.
