Leo Valledor’s Sunprize is a monochrome, vertically oriented yellow rectangle. The color of the painting grows in intensity from top to bottom, where the yellow area segues into a fringe of drips. This shift in tone and evidence of the fluidity of the medium are suggestive of the painting process and the passage of time. The yellow rectangle is surrounded by a narrow border painted a neutral brown, which highlights the drips at the bottom as well as other evidence of the materiality of paint, while framing the yellow area, both formally and symbolically.
