Original artwork description:

This contemporary figurative painting reimagines the timeless carousel as a symbolic procession of riders and horses, frozen in a moment of quiet strength and rhythm. Rendered in a modern, cubist-inspired style, the figures are constructed through bold geometry, layered patterns, and expressive color fields that merge human and animal into a unified presence.

The carousel horses stand as guardians of memory and tradition, evoking childhood wonder while carrying deeper themes of protection, resilience, and continuity. A rich palette of reds, blues, greens, and warm earth tones creates movement and harmony, while the vertical composition echoes the rise and fall of a carousel’s motion.

This piece balances nostalgia with contemporary expression, inviting the viewer to reflect on cycles of time, shared experiences, and the enduring bond between humans and animals. It is well suited for collectors seeking narrative-driven work with emotional depth, vibrant color, and modern folk sensibility.
