Three-dimensional fabric

The artist seems to celebrate the history of art, merging past and present in a single work. The effect of the brushstroke remaining in the canvas creates a sense of continuity, almost as if the artistic past were emerging through the work of the contemporary artist.
The choice to use ancient paintings as the subject adds a further layer of conceptual complexity to the work, suggesting a dialogue between tradition and innovation. This can lead the viewer to reflect on the meaning of art in the context of history and cultural evolution.
Ultimately, this canvas offers an intriguing and stimulating view of contemporary art, challenging conventions and inviting the audience to explore the relationship between the past and the present in the artistic realm.

The canvas artwork is mounted on a wooden frame; the brush is worked with acrylic paint to give the impression of three-dimensional brushstrokes. Frame not included.
The brush is firmly attached to the canvas with screws.
