That red is the warmest and most materially present note in the canvas. Everywhere else, figures accumulate: electric cyan outlines produce faces, grasping hands, contorted bodies, reaching arms from a field offering no stable negative space. Upper left holds a large dark-red circular form. At lower left, a blue-skinned figure crouches open-mouthed. Text fragments appear at the upper right margin. The density of embedded forms is such that the eye cannot rest anywhere without encountering another face or limb pressing through from beneath.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ryan Louder","offers":[{"title":"Original - 160.02 x 185.42 x 0.76cm (unframed) \/ 580.64 x 580.64cm (actual image size)","offer_id":57137164943705,"sku":"1616276","price":18000.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Signed A3 Print (16x20\" Mount)","offer_id":57979357364569,"sku":"1616276-print-a3","price":110.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4246\/3577\/files\/696fd27cf3c24f3c842a92e2536ef782_opt.jpg?v=1777841076"},{"product_id":"the-negotiation-by-ryan-louder","title":"The Negotiation by Ryan Louder","description":"\u003ch2\u003eChoose your edition\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eExplore The Negotiation as an original painting or a signed A3 print in a 16 × 20 inch mount.

Text is layered across her face and chest in pink and yellow-green paint, both covering and emerging from the skin. A small solitary figure stands on her forehead, silhouetted and dark, arms raised. A rectangular form suggestive of a door is drawn in pale gold to her right. The irises contain interior scenes too small to fully resolve. Below her face, a second smaller head is barely legible at the neck. The dark brown-green ground absorbs everything beyond the face.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ryan Louder","offers":[{"title":"Original - 107 x 107 x 0.1cm (unframed) \/ 106.68 x 170.18cm (actual image size)","offer_id":57979371487577,"sku":"1803542","price":5250.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"Signed A3 Print (16x20\" Mount)","offer_id":57979371520345,"sku":"1803542-print-a3","price":110.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4246\/3577\/files\/f2d2bc7d1ecf43749322e360f7ed5e42_opt_6a5277bc-12e7-4d86-bf6b-4e3fb9c996fa.jpg?v=1777841562"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.ryanlouder.art\/collections\/selected-major-works.oembed","provider":"Ryan Louder","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
