About The Artwork

Line follows the rhythm of breathing and it contains life itself. The direction of the line is very important as it intrensectly communicate a certain mood beyond the content of the painting. The artist explains that tracing a line is like a dance and that who watches it can dance with it too. One more observation about the line is that when two or more line crosses each other they create a void and the artist himself is very interested in the void as in the void itself there are hidden the secrets of life such as in the black matter of the space. This painting shows a crowd tanks a little bit like toys, a mass of them facing each other like in a war. The crowd of tanks for the artist also represent the fact that one day he imagines a world where tanks will not be in use anymore and will be thrown as rubbish or used for other purposes. Thanksgiving day is an important day for many and "tanksgiving" day is the day where wars will disappear from the face of the earth as they will be no longer needed and tanks will be used for other purposes. In the painting is highlighted the confusions on tanks that have no role anymore, dancing in the canvas. This painting on canvas is already stretched and ready to Hung, it is unframed, you can decide to hung it like that o get it framed by a professional framer, my advice to you if you are going to frame it it to buy a soft tone, I would usually go with white.
