Artist: Trevor Bell
Artwork: Bevel
Year: 2001
Medium: Oil on canvas
Artwork Size: 92.5 × 92.5 cm
Bevel, painted in 2001, is a striking example of Trevor Bell’s mature abstract practice, bringing together bold colour, dynamic form and a powerful sense of movement.
Throughout his career, Bell explored the relationship between abstraction and the natural world, drawing inspiration from landscape, light and the physical experience of place. Rather than depicting his surroundings literally, he translated their energy and atmosphere into expressive arrangements of colour and form.
In Bevel, strong geometric shapes interact across the square canvas, creating a sense of tension, movement and spatial depth. The title itself suggests an angled or sloping edge, reflecting Bell’s enduring interest in the way shapes can alter our perception of space and the boundaries of the picture plane.
Created in 2001 and executed in oil on canvas, Bevel demonstrates Bell’s confident handling of scale, colour and structure, and the expressive approach to abstraction that remained central to his practice.
