About the Item

"Floating Blue Willow Lily" is a contemporary painting by Hamptons-based artist, Darius Yektai. What started as an oil on linen painting, evolves into a three-dimensional, textural and reflective surface, by layering resin and paint atop the painted canvas. A modern take on Claude Monet's Waterlily paintings, but highly saturated, thickly painted, and composition zoomed-in. This painting is sold unframed. A frame can be made for the painting, but that responsibility is up to the collector. Darius Yektai was born in Southampton, NY, in 1973. He lives and works out of his home and studio in Sag Harbor. He grew up in a cultural home of art and artists, with his Greek-American Mother, and his Father, Manoucher Yektai, an Iranian who emigrated to the US after the Second World War, was a prominent Hamptons AbEx painter. Darius has picked up some traits from his father, but pushes even further into what is now entirely his own. Darius's most recent body of work is bright, colourful, with oil and acrylic paints laid on thick. He's creating sculptural paintings that can't be read from left to right; they need to be examined from surface to base, from section to section, and then overall as an encompassing whole.
