Natural forms stand out against a modern cubist background, to produce a striking piece of wall art. While echoes of the ancient art of collage are evident, the cubist style dominates this composition. Cubism actually being the all encompassing backdrop behind most modern collage. Not just this particular piece.
Cubism represented the investigation of natural forms as geometric shapes, viewed from many angles. Within this piece, concepts of the cubist vision form the background. Or, more specifically, the landscape. In the foreground the rich gold floral forms stand out boldly. While others blend easily within that landscape. A true epitome of nature.
Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque first brought the concept of collage into the world of oil painting. Both of whom brought about the Cubist movement, during the early nineteen hundreds. Braque was the first to apply collage techniques to his charcoal drawings. Picasso being swift to take up the idea and experiment on canvas. As have many other great artists since then.
The style of canvas art and colors we choose reflect who we are, and how we wish to be portrayed. Our homes are a place where people can be themselves. Within this composition colors are bright and bold. Yet undoubtedly feminine; strength and subtlety beautifully combined. All the things the color lilac exudes, and all the things this intriguing piece of wall art portrays.
