This vibrant painting captures a sprawling urban landscape at dusk, showcasing a city skyline juxtaposed against a network of busy highways. The skyscrapers, depicted in a blend of pastel colors, rise majestically in the background, providing a striking contrast to the vivid patterns of the roads below. The intricate lines and textures create a sense of movement and life, with bustling traffic depicted by small dots representing cars in various hues. A dynamic sky, painted with swirling colors, suggests a transition from day to night, adding to the overall energy of the scene. The artist’s choice of colors evokes a surreal yet captivating atmosphere, making it a thought-provoking piece suitable for modern decor. This painting would be a stunning centerpiece in a contemporary living room or office space, where its vibrant colors and energetic composition can stimulate conversation and inspire creativity. It could also work beautifully in a hallway or entryway, instantly drawing attention and providing a welcoming ambiance.
The painting represents a glimpse of Houston on two different layers: the first one is a polycarbonate sheet painted with debossed colours that represent the colourful city, while the second one is the underlying canvas painted with stratified acrylics and treated with special techniques. The two surfaces, uniting, create one composition where the layers blend with each other and result in news perceptive solutions. Moreover, the sheet is placed so that it creates a waving effect that comes out of the painting, giving it a third dimension; that put in contact the viewer with the work and creates ate the same time a mixture of lights and shadows that mutate as the viewer moves.
