Jordan Tran (KEAN)'s work is grounded in skyscapes, and Let me think introduces a grid into this concern, dividing a single gradient from pale rose to deep amber and burgundy into a twelve-panel structure. Rendered in acrylic on linen, the painting overlays the continuity of atmospheric transition with the discreteness of the grid, so that the seamless movement of colour is read simultaneously as one field and as a sequence of discrete parts. This tension between fluidity and division mirrors the fragmented, incremental nature of thought itself, positioning the grid as a formal analogue for deliberation rather than a compositional device. The work's scale and layered structure ask for close, sustained looking, extending Tran's broader inquiry into atmosphere as a language for interior, non-verbal states.
