About this work
Night Parcel No. 4 is a acrylic and aerosol on panel work shaped around signage logic translated into mood. Lark Mason keeps the palette anchored in aubergine, desert peach, and sand so the whole body of work reads as a single conversation.

About the artist
Lark Mason
El Paso, TX
Nico Ortega's contemporary paintings draw from border light, painted signage, and the color logic of desert nights. As Lark Mason, Ortega favors restrained compositions with one or two disruptive gestures that keep each work from settling too neatly.
Artist statement
I am interested in the moment a clean structure starts to loosen. A painting becomes real for me when order and accident can both still be seen.
