Meaning & Analysis
Four Majors (2018) is a signed screen print by Jonas Wood featuring four images of tennis courts that capture the artist’s interest in the sports world and flatness of modern abstraction. Reimagining a commonplace subject matter in bold colours and shapes, the print exemplifies how the fabric of everyday life inspires Wood’s creative practice. Blue, red, and green surfaces dominate the depicted venues, contrasting with black backgrounds that mediate a sense of stillness in the areas where stands with team supporters would be expected to appear.
Each of the images presents an ostensibly flat plane, confounding the viewer’s expectations of dimensions and scale. The clarity and orderliness of the image invoke representation of the interior space in such works as Interior with Blue Terrace And Garden (2017) by David Hockney, whom Wood mentions as one of his major influences. The artist commented in the context of the print: "My paintings of tennis courts were about an interest in abstraction, and how the court becomes a geometric puzzle."
American artist, Jonas Wood, navigates the intersection of tradition and innovation within his work. Defying categorisation, Wood is renowned for his vibrant and intricate works that blend together textures, landscapes and still life. His compositions reveal an intimate exploration of personal and shared spaces, presenting the psychological impact and lasting memories of the artist. These experiences are recreated using Wood's distinctive bold line work, flattened forms and vibrant colour. His visual language references movements such as Cubism and Pop Art, yet is heavily personal. Wood's masterful synthesis of colour, form, and narrative has established a legacy that resonates with collectors and enthusiasts alike.
