ABOUT THE ARTWORK

"Expanding My Horizon 1" paints the sky in hues of vibrant red, a captivating mixed media artwork that encapsulates the essence of broadening one's perspective—a fundamental element of personal growth and embracing fresh opportunities. Inspired by the principles of learning, evolving, and embracing novel experiences, the artist symbolically references Cainggit Beach against the backdrop of a striking crimson sky to convey this profound concept. Cainggit Beach, bathed in the warm glow of the red horizon, holds deep personal significance as the artist's cherished place for swimming and play. Through this artwork, viewers are prompted to consider the analogy between this serene beach and the broader message about the limitations of selective information, where people often seek affirmation of their existing beliefs. This captivating piece is expertly crafted with acrylic on canvas, embracing an abstract expressionism style. The acrylic medium infuses the artwork with a rich interplay of color and texture, deepening its emotional impact. To enhance the textural and dimensional qualities of "Expanding My Horizon 1," the artist creatively incorporates mercerized cotton string and boat nails along the edges, adding complexity and intrigue to the composition. The canvas serves as the solid foundation for this artwork, thoughtfully primed with synthetic materials to create captivating textures, enriching the overall sensory experience. To present "Expanding My Horizon 1" with finesse, the artwork is elegantly box framed, with nails securing the sides, seamlessly integrating with the use of strings. This framing choice enhances the overall aesthetic. Hanging "Expanding My Horizon 1" is a straightforward process, thanks to the included nylon attachment at the back. A simple screw is all that's needed to securely display this dynamic artwork.
