Original artwork description:

Title: "Research"
Technique: Hemp and enamel on canvas
Dimensions: 120x150cm
Year: 2023

This painting, titled "Searching," is an abstract work that appears to have been created with a combination of hemp and enamel on canvas. Measuring 120x150 cm, the size is considerable, allowing the artist to broadly explore the interaction between the materials used. The use of hemp introduces an organic, earthy texture, in stark contrast to the glossy, fluid appearance of the enamel. The result is an image that reflects a sense of quest, as the title suggests, and perhaps even a journey of discovery. The use of bright colors gives the work an energetic vibrancy, while the use of glazes evokes a sense of ritual, as if the viewer is witnessing a shamanic ritual. There is a sense of cloudiness throughout the work, which could represent the uncertainty or ambiguity of the quest itself.
