About this artwork
A complex and highly chromatic background surrounds four figures. A more prominent figure with open arms invites the viewer to look closely. The other three with different body postures, one crouching and two crisscrossed on the ground, facing different directions, are vessels of symbolic content carrying an emotional undertone. The play of opposites and colour contrasts balances the composition, with reds exiting and greens calming the eye. Bold…
strokes create an interesting, chaotic texture reminiscent of the elements. A visual tension is achieved between a play of opposites. The warmth coming forward and coolness residing develop a sense of depth. Light and dark as a Dantesque visit to the underworld. A light source suggests an exit, a resolution, the paint dripping down, connecting all figures. Like in a dream, something obscure wants to unveil itself; voices want to be heard, a gestalt dialogue between elements to find meaning.
