Original artwork description:

Acrylic on gesso-primed black cardboard (H50 W35 D0,3 cm) from 2009.

A nostalgic still life where fabric, light, and memory intertwine. Lacy Still Life (2009) reflects the intimacy of domestic quiet: a brass teapot, a glass bottle, and a small ornamental gourd — all gently veiled by lace and filtered light. The painting captures the quiet poetry of ordinary things, moments that feel both timeless and fleeting.

The acrylic layers build a soft yet dynamic texture, emphasizing transparency and reflection. The patterned lace background creates rhythm and depth, contrasting with the solid stillness of the objects. This work bridges classical still life tradition with a more introspective, painterly sensitivity.
