The exhibition, which the artist has named Radiant Love, consists of a series of 12 new paintings and a sculpture. The paintings in Radiant Love are figurative and narrative, evoking connotations to various painterly traditions such as Expressionism, Surrealism, and Symbolism. In addition to these art historical references, the imaginative and the fantastical, the motifs also stem from the artist's personal and lived experiences, where levels of emotional pain to uninhibited joy can be traced in many of the works.
Radiant Love serves as a visual document of a mental landscape, presenting works revolving around scenes from both the small and grand aspects of human life, where the trivial rituals of the everyday merge with the magnificent and the cosmic. In addition to his paintings, Brinch has created a sculpture that bears the title of the exhibition. The sculpture is composed of wood, plaster, expansion foam, textile, paint, and glass glitter. It symbolizes the merging of two souls in the infinite universe and can be seen as
a manifesto of love.
