About the Item
Amanda Besl
Bergenshine, 2025
Oil on panel
Signed on reverse
Amanda Besl’s Bergenshine is a vibrant meditation on life cycles, femininity, and the strange seduction of the natural world. Set in a lush, dreamlike wetland, this meticulously rendered oil painting features an otherworldly tangle of lotus pods, water lilies, and cascading pink blossoms. The shaped oval format enhances the immersive quality of the scene, as if peering through a botanical lens into a surreal marshland teeming with color and quiet tension.
With a mastery of form and texture, Besl elevates natural motifs into the realm of the uncanny. Her precise brushwork and layered composition conjure both scientific illustration and visual reverie, merging sensual beauty with a hint of unease. The glowing palette and luminous water reflections contribute to the artist’s signature style—one that is both intimate and expansive.
An unforgettable piece for collectors of contemporary feminist art, botanical surrealism, and works that explore the psychology of nature.
