This panoramic image explores both visual and physical interaction with space. With its deep asphalt black background and rough surface, it invites the viewer to touch and feel the texture in an almost tactile way. The abstract elements in ocher and blue stand out like flashes of light in the dark and provide a visual focus that attracts the viewer's eyes.
This picture offers possibilities for a versatile placement – it can be hung on a high edge to emphasize the verticality, or stand on the floor, slanted against a wall, and almost function as a sculptural piece of furniture in the room. This bold way of presenting art not only creates visual interest, but also invites discussion and debate about the role and boundaries of art in space. It will be a conversation starter that challenges conventional expectations of how art should be presented and experienced.
The picture comes complete with a black wooden frame and suspension with steel wire.
