ANXIETY 2 Dean Crozier’s contemporary abstract painting with warm mosaic bands and a cool flowing wave, capturing the movement of shifting thoughts and the tension between order and emotion.

ANXIETY 2 presents a sweeping, billowing wave that cascades down the canvas, creating a sense of movement that shifts depending on how the viewer reads the work—rising or falling, building or dissolving. The contrasting angles of the mosaic‑like geometry pull the eye through the composition, guiding attention along the wave’s curve and across the structured horizontal sections. Warm tones dominate the surrounding bands, while cooler hues define the flowing central form, creating a subtle but compelling tension between stability and motion.

This abstract artwork visualises the way thoughts surge and recede within the mind, echoing the difficulty of slowing recurring ideas as they rise and fall through our internal landscape. The softened, subdued palette lends the piece a quiet warmth, making it well suited to contemporary interiors seeking a reflective focal point.
