Original artwork description
«Equilibrist»
The Equilibrist is a surreal, poetic look at stillness and introspection.
The painting uses dreamlike, surreal elements to explore self-awareness. By placing its figures in an intentionally rigid, geometrical space, it encourages the viewer to see balance not just as a physical act but as a symbol for the way we constantly negotiate our sense of identity and perception.
The background serves a stylized stage for the central figure. The long braid, falling toward the ground, forms a gentle connection between body, space, and gravity, suggesting a world where familiar forces shift and multiple interpretations become possible.
Together, these elements create an image that feels both contemplative and open, encouraging the viewer to linger and explore its layered meanings.
The painting is created on a 1.5 inch (3.8 cm) gallery-wrapped canvas and the sides are painted, so it can be displayed without a frame.
If desired, the artwork can be beautifully presented in a floating frame (also called a tray frame). This type of frame is specifically designed for gallery-wrapped canvases and creates a small gap around the painting, giving the artwork a clean, elegant “floating” appearance.
Floating frames are widely used in galleries and allow the full depth of the canvas to remain visible while adding a refined finished look.

Stretched canvas, Oil, Varnish
