Original artwork description:

Wine tasting.

A classic still life meets the pulsating energy of modernity. Bottles of rich red wine and elegant glasses are placed on the table.
The painting features a unique "glitch" effect - digital noise that replaces familiar lines and shapes with shimmering stripes emanating from objects.

This distortion, creating a "glitch" in the image, transforms a defect into an aesthetic feature.

It is a dialogue between the past and the future, between traditional art and the digital modern.
The "glitch" effect symbolizes the transience, mutability, and multilayered nature of perception. It transforms a static image into a dynamic one, forcing the viewer to actively participate in the interpretation process.

The painting's color palette immerses the viewer in an atmosphere of comfort and depth. Warm wine tones intertwine with deep black, creating contrast and volume. White and grey tones add sophistication, while ochre and earthy shades evoke the natural origins of wine and fruit, their roots.

The "Echo of Reality" series.
Imagine an evening filled with the aroma of ripe fruit and red wine. The sun slowly sets below the horizon, painting the landscape outside the window in warm, earthy tones. On the table, as if frozen in the moment, sit elegant glasses filled with ruby-colored wine, fragrant fruit, and sumptuous bunches of grapes. It's a classic still life, promising comfort and pleasure.

But what if this familiar scene suddenly begins to falter? What if reality, captured in acrylic, suddenly succumbs to digital distortion, turning into a mesmerizing "glitch"? This is precisely what happens in this series of works, where the artist boldly plays with perception, transforming a defect into a new aesthetic.

"Echo of Reality" is more than just still lifes and landscapes. It is a dialogue between eternity and transience, between the material world and its digital reflection.

The images seem to come to life, but in their own way. The glitch effect, which mimics digital interference, appears as thin, colored streaks emanating from objects, creating a sense of slight distortion and vibration. This is not an error, but a deliberate artistic technique that adds depth and dynamism to the image.
