About this artwork
The viewer of the picture first looks into an interior, into an artist's studio, and then his eye wanders into the background of the picture, a seascape, as if through a window. In the center sits the artist, who grabs the palette in an extatic moment to continue her work. Behind her, the Leinand lights up in yellow, which shows the beginnings of her work. One can see the study of a mask or parts of a totem. With her right arm, the artist encompasses…
a cow skull, which she should also insert into her picture. In this work of art the artist wants to make a statement on the one hand about the finiteness of life and on the other hand about the infinity of art. Art is a memory of the past and at the same time free action in a world with unlimited horizons.
