Description
Acrylic on canvas.
The Shadow Boxer and skipstep paintings grow out of an interest in the paradox of spatial comprehension found in abstract painting.
As with the shadow boxing practice in which the athlete spars with his or her own shadow, Bolt finds that the illusory qualities of abstract composition initiate a similar exercise of perception and expectation.
Using the geometric vocabulary found in architectural schemata, Bolt tries to create a dynamic tension between foreground and background, center and edge, inside and out. The dual spatial identities that the myriad forms have with one another create a visual riddle.
His goal as a painter is not to solve the riddle as much as pose it as a unique perceptual challenge. And it is that challenge that fulfills the experience one has with the painting.

Presentation
Macyn Bolt is an American painter, born in 1954. He studied at Syracuse University and obtained a diploma in Fine arts in 1981. Nowadays, he spends time between New York and Pennsylvania.
Macyn Bolt's painting is abstract and geometric. Inspired by architecture, the artist juxtaposes forms and colors to create visual harmony in his paintings. Almost monochromatic, his creations play around with forms and contrasts, bordering transparency and opacity, in order to create a relief like illusion and depth. The canvas is like a theater stage, where various forms evolve, dependent on one another.
In order to achieve visually attractive works, Macyn Bolt lays down several layers of acrylic paint on mediums like canvases, wooden panels or even sheets of paper.
Macyn Bolt regularly exhibits during solo and group exhibitions in USA.
