Artur Płachta - We all love ice cream

A bright piece of art. In this whimsical tableau, we find ourselves swept into a dreamscape where surrealism flirts playfully with nostalgic kitsch. A vibrant ice cream cart, boasting hues of warm yellows and creamy whites, stands proudly amidst a fantastical landscape. The cart, a metaphorical chariot of delight, is adorned with intricate patterns reminiscent of fairground exuberance. Two figures, clad in jaunty attire, one astride a charming toy horse, evoke a sense of childlike wonder and joy. Their exaggerated features and eccentric costumes suggest a nod to the irreverent energy of Dadaism. Floating above, winged individuals skyward soar, painting the heavens with a sense of liberated whimsy. The sky's tempestuous blues and greys converse in harmony with the earthy color palette, adding depth and emotional richness to the composition. This piece is a delightful celebration of imagination and the everyday, inviting viewers to relish in its joyous spectacle. Artur Płachta - a cracovian painter, sculptor and graphic designer born in 1971. A diploma in sculpture clearly influenced his painting style. For many years he managed a professional art studio in Kraków. Winner of many painting reviews and awards from the Museum of Contemporary Art in Warsaw and the prestigious magazine Exit. He took part in many exhibitions in Germany, Austria, France and Romania. Hundreds of paintings and sculptures are in collections all over the world, including USA, New Zealand and even Afghanistan also in all European countries. Currently inspired by ceramic art in a funny way trying to tell about human passions. Behind the fairy-tale decorations are hidden the deepest human passions and desires. Canvas stretched on wooden frame. Colors of the painting may slightly differ from photos due to screen settings. Comes with a certificate of authenticity. Will be carefully packed in bubble wrap and cardboard. Shipping with tracking number.
