7x7 Grid 1A
by Josh Burggraf
With its lush palette of greens, purples, and cool blues, 7x7 Grid 1A by Josh Burggraf offers a meditative take on his signature grid-based compositions. Expanding the structure to a 7x7 format, this piece explores rhythm and repetition through 49 abstract glyphs—each one hand-painted with gestural energy and layered texture.
The interplay of organic forms and graphic shapes gives the work a sense of coded language—like fragments of a visual alphabet waiting to be deciphered. Despite its structure, the piece never feels static. Burggraf infuses each square with unique character, creating a dynamic push and pull between chaos and order, control and spontaneity.
