Static Allocation
Mixed media on watercolour paper, 6 × 8 in
Static Allocation is a minimalist, high-tension abstraction that explores balance through restraint, isolation, and controlled contrast. A dense black field is countered by a small, suspended red element, creating a quiet but charged relationship between mass and interruption. The surrounding white ground functions as active space rather than emptiness, heightening the sense of containment and pressure within the composition.
The work relies on economy of gesture rather than accumulation. Each mark carries structural weight, and the limited palette intensifies the dialogue between stillness and potential movement. Despite its compact scale, Static Allocation possesses a strong internal architecture and a deliberate sense of visual authority.
Created with mixed media on watercolour paper, this piece reflects Susan Hunter Guise’s disciplined approach to contemporary abstraction, where reduction and precision are used to generate emotional and spatial tension. It functions as a quiet counterpoint to her more gestural works while maintaining full conceptual strength.
