Peter Gooch's inspiration for this most recent body of work comes from his University Research Institute sponsored sabbatical taken in Ethiopia in 2009. Gooch’s stunning abstract work consists of series of strips of paintings that playfully shift in light, color and form embodying Gooch's impressions of the decorative motifs found in ancient Ethiopian art, artifacts and architecture. Contrasting the organic nature found within each of the individual strips is their geometric application, creating subtle tension and intrigue between the jumps in palettes.
