Fading & Becoming
From The Interstice Collection by Payton James—Inspired by the tension between what was and what lies ahead, this collection reveals the beauty not just in what is seen, but in the gaps. Through layered textures and fragmented forms, it explores how what is left behind shapes what emerges, and how unraveling the past creates space for growth and clarity.
A semi-transparent layer floats over this 24”x30” mixed media acrylic painting, softening the canvas beneath and gradually transforming it. The painting behind fades, but in the process, it’s reborn into something new. The semi-transparent Duralar can be removed as it is attached with magnets to give the piece a different look, but it’s all about that change—the way something fades to make room for new growth.
