ABOUT THE ARTWORK
"The Roots" is a kaleidoscopic plunge into a world where colors swirl and dance in symphonic harmony. The first noticeable aspect is the vibrant play of colors that evokes feelings of warmth and nostalgia, reminiscent of the primeval nature where life initially took root.The primary hues used—lively greens, robust yellows, and rich blues—lend the piece an organic quality, as though you're witnessing the very heartbeats of Mother Earth. The prominent green is symbolic of life, renewal, and energy. It courses through the artwork like sap through a tree, representing vitality and growth. The blues seem to wash over the composition like water, a nod perhaps to the importance of water as life's elixir, complementing the green in a yin-yang representation of nature. The yellows and oranges, meanwhile, bring to mind the sun's rays, nurturing the land and providing sustenance. The circular motifs, layered and intertwined, are reminiscent of tree rings. These patterns not only signify age and the passage of time but also the cyclical nature of life. Everything returns to its roots eventually, and these concentric circles seem to hint at this eternal return. Interestingly, the pink and orange spheres, varying in size, draw the viewer's attention. They can be perceived as fruits, seeds, or even celestial bodies. Their presence brings a certain rhythm to the piece, much like musical notes on the vast canvas of nature. The dynamic brushwork creates a sense of movement, as if the roots are not static but growing, expanding, and reaching out. It encourages the viewer to ponder upon our own roots, our connection to the world, and how we grow from our experiences. "The Roots" is a vivid representation of life, growth, and connection. It invites the viewer to introspect, to trace back to their origins, and to appreciate the intricate tapestry of life.

Luna Ljus
Germany
No orders possible between 12.12.2024 and 15.01.2025. Luna Ljus, a multidisciplinary artist originating from Brazil, presents a diverse portfolio centered around the motif of metamorphosis. Her creations resonate with profound shifts—be they physical, emotional, or historical. Drawing from a rich tapestry of inspirations, including mythology, sci-fi, and the annals of art history. Ljus's invites audiences to a realm where the present moment is momentarily set aside, allowing for a cathartic journey through emotion, only to circle back with a rejuvenated perspective. Employing a blend of the abstract and the literal, she reimagines literary, fictional, and historical themes, often through a kaleidoscope of vibrant hues. At the heart of her repertoire is the notion of transformation. Each piece, echoing life's cyclical dance of birth, decay, and rebirth, beckons onlookers to ponder the depths of change. Her visual lexicon unfolds with a mix of geometric musings and organic shapes, painting dreams and hinting at alternate dimensions. There's a deliberate interplay of color and form—a testament to her infatuation with their symbiotic relationship. Ljus's canvases pulsate with energy, largely credited to her choice of spirited, juxtaposed colors. The echoes of Fauvism, Cubism, and Abstract Expressionism, particularly the traces of Orphism and color field techniques, are undeniable in her work. Moreover, the recurring patterns and symbols in her pieces are deliberate nods to mythology, science fiction, and the annals of art history. Ljus's meticulous method involves a profound exploration of narrative through the prism of elementary forms and vivid colors, often blurring the lines between the abstract and the definitive. Her penchant for the tactile essence of paper and water-soluble pigments pushes her to constantly experiment with varied mediums, crafting semi-abstract artworks. Each creation undergoes an intriguing evolution. Beginning with a detailed watercolor foundation, the piece is subject to alterations in color fields and strokes over days or even weeks, reflecting the evolving thoughts and sentiments that sparked its inception. This fluid process sometimes yields unforeseen motifs, adding serendipitous layers to her work. Ljus's oeuvre is thoughtfully segmented into series: "Renewals" delves into the nuances of change. "Strange Worlds" is a poetic contemplation of alternate realities and entities.
