Original artwork description:

In "Archeology," I delve into the depths of human consciousness and the fragmented nature of our collective past. This large-scale painting is a vivid representation of my hallucinatory experiences, where forms and figures emerge from the canvas as if unearthed from the strata of memory and time. The composition is an abstract tapestry of colors and textures, with figures appearing and disappearing in a dreamlike fashion._x000D_ _x000D_ The vibrant hues of green, purple, yellow, and red swirl together, creating a sense of movement and fluidity, as though the very earth itself is alive with stories waiting to be told. The figures within the painting are both haunting and enigmatic, their features partially obscured, evoking a sense of mystery and intrigue. They seem to be in a state of perpetual transformation, embodying the idea that our understanding of history and identity is always evolving._x000D_ _x000D_ The dark background contrasts sharply with the bright, almost luminous colors, highlighting the tension between the known and the unknown. This painting is not just a reflection of my internal experiences but also a commentary on the nature of discovery and the ever-shifting sands of human knowledge. Through "Archeology," I invite viewers to explore the layers of their own consciousness and to consider the ways in which our perceptions of the past shape our present and future. I’m a London-based artist, and my work often reflects vivid and surreal imagery inspired by my unique experience with REM intrusion—a condition where dream-like visions can appear while I’m awake. My paintings explore the boundary between waking reality and the dream world, using layered compositions to create a sense of depth and movement. I paint with high-quality materials and put a lot of thought into texture and detail. My process is a mix of intuitive brushwork and deliberate layering, aiming to create pieces that are rich in emotion and invite you to see something new each time you look at them. This piece will be carefully packaged using protective materials and dispatched via a tracked courier. If you have any questions or special requests, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
