Evolution

The epic sweep of Ebanks’ mural-sized Evolution bears witness to the artist’s ever evolving style, employing a drip and pour technique in place of the more conventional brushwork he typically favours. While stylistically the expansive surface of Ebanks’ canvas superficially recalls the Abstract Expressionist style pioneered by figures such as Jackson Pollock in the 1940s, for Ebanks, Evolution represents not only an aesthetic departure, but also an analogue to the artist’s perpetually roving thought processes, reflecting his inquisitive mind that is always posing questions and seeking answers.
