A gouache on paper depicting a stylised bird in flight, a recurring motif within O’Casey’s work. The composition combines simplified geometric forms with a restrained palette, reflecting his interest in abstraction, rhythm and the reduction of natural forms to their essential elements.
Breon O’Casey (1928–2011) was a British artist associated with the St Ives School. Working across painting, sculpture, printmaking and weaving, he developed a practice informed by European modernism, characterised by a close attention to form, structure and materiality.
