Original artwork description:

This painting is some manifesto of my recent course where I explore simple shapes such as spheres, cones, or cubes in the space still-life. Here I use pyramids. I refer to them as all their meanings and what they symbolize in the World Culture but also as the primitive figure, basics in the drawing studies, and finally as mere kinder toys.

Besides the pyramids on the table drawn by the reverse perspective, there are a lot of mystical objects, the destination of some is unknown. Some of them are fruits. You can see the wine glass. I wanted to reach a stage where objects cease to be recognizable and lose their purpose. All this takes place against the backdrop of the Baroque landscape inspired by my childhood love for Claude Lorraine's paintings, but more disturbing and dramatic, as the context of the work requires.

Materials used:

acrylic & tempera on cardboard
