‿︵‿୨ LAYERS ୧‿︵‿
1. TYPICAL WALLPAPER STYLE BACKGROUND
The foundation of this piece is a vintage-style wallpaper reminiscent of late 19th and early 20th-century designs, suggesting the wallpaper is a well-preserved relic from a bygone era. It features symmetrical floral motifs with intricate leaf patterns, exuding a sense of harmony and balance. The color scheme is predominantly muted gold, evoking a sense of aged refinement and luxury. This layer also explores a range of duotones, encompassing warm, cool, vivid, soft, vintage, mono, and color pop variations.
2. CUBIC OBJECTS
Forms resembling cubic objects or tessellated hexagonal tiles are layered over the wallpaper. These shapes introduce a modern contrast with a Cubist twist to the organic background, playing with the viewer's perception and challenging the wallpaper's flatness. This layer, hinting at Cubism, adds a contemporary edge, playing with light and shadow to simulate a three-dimensional protrusion from the wall, creating a captivating optical illusion. The shading and tonal variations on the cubes enhance the three-dimensional effect and add a tactile quality to the artwork.
3. BIRD
3. BIRD
The bird, possibly a stylized Great Tit, contrasts with the golden, geometric background. As the composition's focal point, it is superimposed over both the wallpaper and cubic shapes. It's rendered with photorealistic precision, showcasing the delicate textures of real bird feathers. The grayscale treatment of the bird sets it apart from the golden backdrop, drawing the viewer's attention to its form and detail. This stark contrast between the bird and its backdrop creates a dialogue between realism and abstraction, a theme prevalent in contemporary art that blurs the lines between reality and imagination.
‿୨ FANTASY OF THE GARDEN BIRD ୧‿
Bird's plumage is rich with vibrant blue-purple hues and hints of golden brown, contrasting exquisitely against the ornate, floral-patterned wallpaper in the background. It creates a surreal and whimsical aesthetic, as the bird's scale about the room's furnishings defies natural proportions.
