About this artwork
In the remote reaches of a forgotten land, a large stratovolcano reigns over a desolate landscape. A brooding giant it lazily spews clouds of sulphur dioxide into a cobalt blue sky. The air hangs heavy with the acrid scent of impending unrest. Powerful carbon dioxide clouds form behind the volcanic range, ominous in their presence, yet devoid of any relief to the parched sandy ground below.
In the darkness of the sky, the moon shines timidly over… the manganese blue mountains that stand as silent witnesses to a time long past. In the foreground, telephone posts stick out like lonely sentinels, their cables battered by the relentless wind, and forming the hair of phantasmagoric figures. These disconnected posts serve as haunting reminders that once, in a distant era, humans had inhabited this forsaken planet.
Among the twisted cables and silent posts, the faces of women, almost forgotten, are barely distinguishable.

Patrick Faure, a contemporary surrealist painter from Monaco, elegantly mixes traditional oil paint methods with his rich cultural foundations of Impressionist and metaphysical art. His masterful employment of vibrant colors and meticulous detail creates thought-provoking, symbolic compositions, unifying classical painting elements with modern, post-human imagery. His works challenge societal norms, inciting deep, philosophical existential questions, critiquing our inherent fragility in an indifferent cosmos, and blurring reality with the subconscious.
