Darius Yektai
"Pink Flowers" Abstract Expressionist oil and resin painting of flora polka dots

2019

About the Item

A rare small painting from contemporary Abstract Expressionist, Darius Yektai. Although titled "pink flowers" the hue of the painting is really more peach, or a light orange. A pattern of polka dots glaze the top of the resin, which is further adorned with thickly painted flowers. Gobs of paint sweep into forms of blossoms and their skinny green stems. Beneath the resin, abstract forms in teal and black lay the groundwork for the still life above. Framed in a modern floating frame. Inquire for framed dimensions. Artist Bio 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 completely his-own. Darius' most recent body of work is bright, colorful, 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.
