Original artwork description:

This captivating painting offers a fresh perspective on a classic still life subject. Through an abstract figurative lens, Mara Wanda captures the essence of oysters and lemon, moving beyond mere representation to evoke a sensory experience.

Forms suggestive of briny shells and the vibrant curve of citrus emerge from a dynamic interplay of color and texture. The painting explores the tactile qualities of the subject – the rough exterior of the oyster, and their watery interior – through expressive brushstrokes and the subtle layering of paint.

This piece invites the viewer to engage with familiar objects in a new way, appreciating the abstract beauty found within the natural world. It is a bold and contemporary take on still life, perfect for those who seek art that is both visually stimulating and conceptually intriguing.
