Bill Armstrong

In Blue Square, Armstrong combines the mystical association of the colour Blue with the symbolism of the square—a form representing stability and transcendence. Blue, with its spiritual connotations, echoes the tradition of artists like Yves Klein and Kandinsky, while the square suggests solidity, grounded by the four cardinal directions, four seasons, and the four elements of earth, water, fire and air. The tension between the stability of the square and the fluidity of the blurred image creates dynamic, pulsating forms. These works invite reflection, offering a meditative space where the viewer can contemplate the intersection of colour, form, and cosmic symbolism.
