Mixed Feelings Anthony Cragg
Mixed Feelings
The work exhibits “the relationship of complete, exterior forms to their internal formal construction.
In Mixed Feelings the apparent complexity of additive and subtractive forms is the result of a more complex interplay between two geometric figures whose complexity ascends the banal andtakes on an
emotive quality.”
