Leo Davy's Elements (1956) captures the dynamic shift in his work following his exposure to American Abstract Expressionism during the 1956 Tate exhibition Modern Art in the United States. Influenced by gestural abstraction and action painting, Davy embraced a freer, more spontaneous approach. The painting's dynamic brushstrokes and textured surface highlight his focus on the physicality of painting. Through colour and texture, Davy conveys deep emotion, offering a compelling example of his evolving style and significant contribution to British post-war art.
