Scaffolding 1941

"Scaffolding," a 1941 work by Conroy Maddox, exemplifies the artist's exploration of abstract forms and geometric structures. The painting features a grid of lines against a pale green background, with various colored shapes suspended from threads and seemingly intersecting the grid. The interplay of geometric and organic shapes, as well as the use of vibrant hues, creates a sense of depth and dynamic tension, typical of Maddox's abstract style. The work, though created during World War II, does not directly address the conflict but rather engages with the artist's fascination with the interplay of abstract elements.
