Into the Red Abyss (2017)Oil painting
by Roman Sedlak
£1,299
Original artwork description
A raw and emotionally charged abstraction, Into the Red Abyss 2 draws the viewer into a visceral dialogue between chaos and control. Bold vertical strokes of smoky gray and black dominate the background, evoking a stormy, atmospheric tension. From this somber depth, explosive splashes of crimson red and forest green erupt across the canvas, creating a dynamic, almost violent rhythm.
Sedlák’s energetic gestures—splattered, dripped, and swept across the surface—suggest urgency and spontaneity, yet there’s a calculated balance beneath the surface. The juxtaposition of structured whites with wild, jagged lines of black and green conveys a struggle between clarity and confusion, order and upheaval. The red quadrant in the lower right anchors the composition with a sense of intensity and finality, pulling the eye into a symbolic "abyss"—a place both dangerous and transformative.
This painting speaks in the language of raw emotion and subconscious force, a vivid statement that invites personal interpretation, challenging the viewer to confront what lies beneath the surface.
