Red Burst by Chris DeRubeis

Bold, energetic, and impossible to ignore, Red Burst is an original mixed-media metal artwork by internationally collected artist Chris DeRubeis. Created on aircraft-grade aluminum, this dramatic four-panel composition radiates with brilliant crimson, fiery orange, and glowing gold tones that appear to explode from the center of the artwork.

Using his signature combination of airbrushing, proprietary chemical treatments, and layered metallic finishes, DeRubeis creates extraordinary depth and luminosity that shifts with changing light throughout the day. Crushed diamonds and crystal elements are incorporated into the surface, adding remarkable sparkle and movement that cannot be captured in photographs.

Each of the four aluminum panels measures approximately 35" x 11". Installed with spacing between the panels, the artwork displays at approximately 38" x 46", creating a contemporary floating presentation that becomes a dramatic focal point in any modern home, office, or commercial space.

As with all Chris DeRubeis originals, Red Burst is a one-of-a-kind creation handcrafted in the artist's studio.
