2021

About the Item

“Recollecting Paradise” has been under development since the beginning of 2021 and consists mainly of medium to large works that have at their core a search for the idea of paradise as a place of meditation and inner peace. Within this series, the painted characters are placed in a natural setting, often featured with many symbols such as exotic animals and tropical elements that introduce the artist’s idea of a fictional paradise as an environment of harmony, innocence and equilibrium. The essential qualities of the paintings are influenced by the multiculturalism in London as well as some social patterns and clothing diversity of the people living in this city. With the use of compelling and dynamic brush stroke along with vibrant colours, a complex gamut is created that highlights a grand utopic design.
