Original artwork description
“TALK TO THE WALL AND THE DOOR MAY LISTEN” is a slightly surreal melancholic urban landscape artwork in which a girl stands on her scooter in a dark corner. Surrounded by shadows of branches that seem to hold her captive and evoke a sense of mystery.
The girl symbolizes youthful vulnerability but also resilience. The interaction between light and dark, sharp and blurred, evokes the atmosphere of a dreamy past, like an old photograph whose colors are beginning to fade.
The image says more than appears at first glance. It tells of a child's silence, of the things that remain unspoken, but which it is hoped someone will hear anyway.
The painting deals with the themes of childhood, memories and overcoming fears. It tells of the inner child whispering in silence, hoping that someone - or something - is listening.
I created the work in my typical layered mixed media style.
Combining Collage elements and painting techniques that flow together in a weathered, worn image reminiscent of old photographs of the past.
Materials used:
Acrylic paint, ink, pencil, oil pastel, watercolor
Details:
- Mixed-media painting on Canvas
- One of a kind artwork
- Size: 70 x 100 x 2cm (unframed)
- Ready to hang
