{"product_id":"color-orb-august","title":"Color Orb August","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis work belongs to the ‘Color Orb’ series — a body of paintings that explore the orbital nature of perception through geometric abstraction. Though grounded in a square motif, each work behaves like an “orb” — not as a planetary form but as a field of visual and atmospheric intensity.\u003cbr\u003eConceptual grounding:\u003cbr\u003eThe nested squares in these works flirt with the familiar logic of Josef Albers’ Homage to the Square, but in Hallard’s hands, they are pushed toward a different purpose. Here, the structure is less about formal color relationships in isolation, and more about constructing a perceptual field that is both enclosed and leaking — suggesting something simultaneously held and expansive.\u003cbr\u003eThis push-pull — between containment and permeation — places these works within what can be described as a hyperobject aesthetic. The orbs operate not simply as flat forms, but as thresholds: perceptual engines that echo the environmental feedback loops of systems too vast to fully contain. The square, traditionally a symbol of order and control, becomes a stage for orbital drift.\u003cbr\u003eVisual notes:\u003cbr\u003eColor Orb presents a warmer resonance: acid green perimeter, gold-orange and black frame an airy cyan core. This pairing offers a reciprocal dialogue of temperature and intensity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRelevance within the Orb series:\u003cbr\u003eThese square Orbs mark a pivot in the series — embracing rigid form not to contain meaning, but to refract it. As such, they invite the viewer to consider the work not as autonomous objects, but as perceptual events: open-ended, participatory, and vibrating just beyond the edges.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Brent Hallard","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57365593620824,"sku":null,"price":3500.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0807\/1548\/1432\/files\/color-orb-august-by-brent-hallard-4233783.jpg?v=1779753196","url":"https:\/\/ideelart.com\/zh-hant\/products\/color-orb-august","provider":"Ideelart","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
