While searching for another title for this painting, I stumbled upon the music piece by pianist Cyneburh, which somehow seemed to perfectly complement the artwork.
The Latin word ‘Nebula’ signifies mist or fog, where nebulas are the birthplaces of stars. In astronomy, it refers to gas clouds that can be icy cold. Nebula is also a genus of butterflies, symbolic of transformation.
With a poetic eye, all these elements can be found in this blue-tinted portrait. This inspired the new name ‘Nebula’s Dance’.
This artwork reveals the inner portrait of the realm of thought and the world of experiences, subtly extending towards the background and the fully painted sides. A clear dynamism is noticeable. On one hand, an endlessly rotating circle manifests itself, while on the other hand, fleeting moments escape like precious gemstones to various corners. The presence of the color blue enhances the emotional representation, like a hint of melancholy in the mist.
The 3D linen canvas is stretched on a wooden and aluminum frame. Ready to hang.
