About this artwork
We see a little boy with a swimming animal in the form of a turtle on the bottom of an empty swimming pool. He wears red swimming trunks and looks cheerfully at the viewer. Behind him to his left is a red ladder leaning against the edge of the pool. As soon as the viewer follows the steps up with his gaze, he realizes that he has been deceived: the pool is not empty, but on the contrary full of water. You think you are looking at a surface of water…
from below, and the boy is not sitting in an empty pool, but appears to be under water. Despite the realistically painted depiction, it is not a real situation but a dreamlike situation.

« It's nice to move in a medium that is extremely slow. »
Clivia Bauer is an experienced artist based in Germany whose paintings have been featured in solo and group exhibitions nationally. Her figurative works explore the inner states of her subjects with "vulnerability, shyness, and insecurity". Bauer describes them as expressions of torn and stressed people in a time of over-individualization and egomania. She primarily creates with oils on canvas or wood.
