Description from the seller
“Sapphire” (2025)
Oil on canvas
175 x 140 cm
Blue dominates this canvas in all its variations - deep navy passages contrast with lighter cerulean areas as VANTA works the oil paint into a field that suggests liquid movement and atmospheric depth. The application creates zones of intensity and transparency, building up a surface that reads as both abstract composition and evocation of natural phenomena like water or sky.
Represented by S-Gallery and available on Catawiki, this piece demonstrates how a single color family can create complex visual experiences through varied application. The blue shifts from opaque to translucent, from smooth to textured, from dark to light as it moves across the canvas. These transitions happen organically rather than through hard edges, creating a sense of continuous flow.
The large format allows these blue variations to develop fully, giving each zone of color enough space to establish its own character before bleeding into neighboring areas. Light plays across the worked surface, revealing new details and depths depending on viewing angle and ambient conditions.
Shipping:
The work is delivered without a frame (professional packaging, rolled in a tube). it can easily be restretched by a professional or on your own, this is also cheaper then the otherwise increased cost of shipping when sending paintings of this size stretched
The measurements indicated are those of the painting stretched and mounted on a frame (The actual
measurements of the canvas are larger to allow it to be mounted on a frame 2-4cm thick.
