George Rush's Darker with the Day: interpretation

Describing the art work:

Darker with the Day was all contemporary work created with paint on canvas as well as being hung on a decorated wall. The work was almost set up as if you were looking outside from inside a house; it was evenly spaced and symmetrical. The work was very dark, gray, simple they all seemed to be on what was on a square canvas it seemed to have a painterly texture smooth with some texture to it. The work all seemed fairly similar. The walls that the paintings were hung on seemed to expand the paintings, and the people viewing the paintings all seemed to react different ways to the paintings whether it be getting up close to the paintings or staying good distance away.

Interpreting the work:

The art work seemed very dark and depressed almost like it was created by someone that is depressed or mentally ill. Almost like it was a glass house with three different views to it. With the walls expanding the paintings it seemed like you could see through the walls and like the whole house was an endless view, the mood of the work seemed dark with all the dark and simple colors.
