About the Item

"Water Lilies: After Monet (Like Looking at a Bad Black and White Photo in an Old Textbook) II" is one of four versions in Darius Yektai's popular Waterlily Series from 2020-2021. The painting is currently unframed, but ready to hang, with wire affixed to the back. 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.
