“Scattered Light” is an abstract piece of art created in 1964 by Beauford Delaney, a prominent figure in the Abstract Expressionism movement. The artwork is characterized by its abstract genre, showcasing a vibrant array of colors and textures.
The artwork features an intricate composition of dappled and scattered brushstrokes, predominantly in warm hues interspersed with cooler tones. The richness of colors, mainly soft yellows, pinks, and occasional blue and green notes, creates a visual vibrancy akin to sunlight filtering through an abstract landscape. The texture and depth achieved through Delaney’s technique invite viewers to engage deeply with the dynamic, almost chaotic interplay of colors, embodying the essence of Abstract Expressionism.
