About the Item

This captivating work is a dazzling demonstration of contemporary abstract art. Created with impressive technical mastery, it is distinguished by its bold use of concentric circles, skilfully layered to create a sense of depth and continuous movement. Dominated by shades of blue, from pastel to slate grey, each circle seems to pulsate with a calm but undeniable energy. The judicious chromatic choice lends the whole a harmonious serenity, while encouraging the viewer to go beyond the surface to explore the multiple layers of meaning. The brushstrokes are both precise and free, suggesting an intuitive understanding of form and space. This juxtaposition of blue reveals itself as a fascinating dance of light and shadow, with each element contributing to the visual balance of the whole. With its vertical panel arrangement, the work resembles a diptych or triptych, adding an architectural dimension. This segmentation invites the viewer to discover each section individually, while recontextualizing it within the whole. This painting is not just an aesthetic composition; it is also an invitation to introspective reflection. It encourages meditation, total immersion in the harmony of form and color, and admiration for the details carefully orchestrated by the artist. In short, this is a work in which the apparent simplicity of the circular motif conceals a richness of conception and execution that cannot leave one indifferent.
