R.E.V Walsh's mathematical, geometric equations as structural paintings, belie a quirky and colourful sense of the rational.

Each painting is a beautiful and colourful construct, visually and aesthetically harmonious and balanced. However, on closer inspection, the content of symbols and shapes, within the painting is a formula of logic, and works as a code or a puzzle inviting you to 'figure it out'.

The work is executed with such precision and skill and is so technically pristine that it could be confused with having been digitally constructed by a machine. Each piece of work is a time consuming project lasting many months.
