About this artwork
This artwork transports viewers into a world where the cacophony of modern life meets the artistry of abstraction.
The canvas itself serves as a foundation and resembles a weathered concrete wall.
On this textured background, a series of small bars appear, carefully layered and saturated with bright, contrasting colors, in a burst of energy and movement. Each bar tells its own story, a snapshot of the dynamics of the city - the busy cabs, the swarms… of pedestrians, the neon signs and the bustle of life.
The contrast of the rough, industrial concrete background with the small, colorful bars creates a visual tension that reflects the push and pull of daily existence in a bustling city. The bars seem to dance across the canvas, intersecting and colliding, creating a sense of controlled chaos that mirrors the ebb and flow of rush-hour traffic. They are not bounded by boundaries or rules, just like the urban sprawl they represent.

« "My tableaus explore the dissonance between old and new materials, intertwined in the most beautiful way possible, creating dreamlike and melancholic images." »
DB Waterman is a painter and photographer who hails from the Netherlands, with work exhibited in the United States, Europe and New Zealand. Her creative goal is to “make something beautiful out of dilapidation” through the mediums of paint, photography and collage. She uses original photographs, acrylics, oil, charcoal, ink and pencils in her works. Having always loved the appearance of peeling paint, weathered walls and old posters, she revives this aesthetic in her pieces.
