DESCRIPTION:
This striking large-scale contemporary painting features a reclining androgynous figure rendered in bold, expressive brushstrokes. The artist combines soft pastels with saturated blues, purples, and neon undertones to create a dreamlike atmosphere that feels both intimate and cinematic. The figure’s relaxed posture, half-smile, and closed eyes evoke a sense of confidence, mystery, and inner serenity, drawing the viewer into a private moment suspended in time.
The background shifts between smoky greys and fluid blues, creating a dramatic contrast with the luminous yellow of the extended legs, subtly marked with star motifs. Layers of texture and painterly gestures add depth and movement, while unexpected color accents—such as blush pinks, cool teal tones, and deep violet shadows—reveal the artist’s mastery of expressive color theory. The overall composition balances elegance and abstraction, making the piece captivating from both near and far.
This artwork stands out as a statement piece, ideal for collectors who appreciate figurative expressionism, bold contemporary portraiture, and emotionally charged modern art. Perfect for upscale interiors, art-driven homes, boutique hotels, and curated spaces seeking a powerful focal point.

Aureum is an internationally renowned visual artist with the background in fine art and interior design. Antique and vintage furniture, contemporary and modern art and accessories inspire her. Anastasia's creations are characterized by a wide range of styles. Surrealism, realism and abstraction are merged in a passionate art dance. Embracing, discovering and penetrating each other, they take on new forms and shades in every new painting. The artist reflects on the relationship between space and forms, where colour is an emotional response to the way they intersect Collections: Vatican Museums, Nina lobanova-Rostovskaya (London), National Museum of Art Humor of Tolentino, National Museum of Sacred Art of Nonantola (Italy), Marchese Sacchetti(Rome), National Centre for Manzoni’s Studies (Milan); Private collections in Italy, UK, Germany, Belgium, Switzerland, France, Singapore, USA.
