Pyrite
$150.00
This circular composition features horizontal layers of color and texture. The dominant colors are warm earth tones, including various shades of red, rust, deep maroon, reddish-brown, tan, and yellow/gold. These colors shift subtly across the layers.
The banded, stratified appearance are layers of varying thicknesses and have a natural, organic look, suggesting a cross-section of a mineral, wood grain, or a geological sample.
The artwork is an abstract representation of a pyrite-bearing rock. The sparkling gold flecks and bands visible throughout the layers strongly suggest the presence of pyrite (often called “Fool’s Gold”), which adds a metallic shimmer and texture contrast to the matte, earthy colors.
The piece has a rich, organic, and somewhat ancient feel, reminiscent of polished stone, agate, or petrified wood, highlighting the beauty found in natural, geological processes.
