Red Dance 1969

Kenneth Young made 'Red Dance', and what I see is the pure joy of putting colour to canvas. There’s a feeling of something unfurling, of seeing where the paint wants to go. The texture's so alive, like the memory of touch. You can almost feel the brush bouncing, each dab a little heartbeat. The color is translucent, allowing the white of the canvas to peek through, it’s not about hiding the process but revealing it. I love the way the reds bleed into each other, creating these gorgeous, unpredictable shapes. Look at the top left corner, where the dots cluster and fade. It reminds me of Joan Mitchell's colour fields, that same sense of boundless energy and emotional depth. Art's just a conversation, isn't it? A constant back-and-forth, a dance between ideas and feelings that never really ends.
