About the Item

"Conquest," by Vojna Bastovanovic Casteel, is a framed oil on canvas painting from 2021 that features an image of a running horse. Rendered in cool values of blue, purple, white, gray, the painting also features accents of warmer colors like pinks, tan and cream. The cropped view of the running horse accentuates its impression speed, while the emphasis on the rendering of its muscles heightens the physicality of the animal. The urgency of the scene is accentuated by what appears to be an approaching storm. Award winning Serbian artist Vojna Bastovanovic Casteel is known for artworks with natural elements, like people and animals (usually wild tigers and lions), that show selective flashes of realism often distorted by an abstract background. In her professional career, she has created hundreds of square meters of portrait mosaics for public spaces and large churches, so mosaic art technique has been her first love. In this centuries old technique, reality is made from patches of color and shape. So, when she creates drawings or oil paintings, the echo of this influence is still present. This allows her to view each of her works as a sum of parts. Her work is inspired by her travels and living in different countries. Living in Serbia, and both in London and Paris for a time, gave exposure to many diverse styles of art and mediums. She lived for a while in South Africa, and observation of large wild cats there inspired their use as subjects. In 2016 Vojna moved to Texas where she is now bringing a tradition of European art to the United States.
