砂穂 Pigment on canvas 100 cm x 140 cm (39 inches x 55 inches) 砂穂 (Saho) - Japanese for sand dunes - is a large abstract painting by contemporary artist VITYRA, that evokes the warmth and quiet rhythm of a sunlit landscape. Layers of raw sienna, yellow ochre and burnt sienna flow gently from a pale upper band into deeper, denser browns near the base, suggesting distant dunes or dry fields slowly dissolving into light. The surface is built through many thin washes of pigment, allowing the colours to soak into the weave of the canvas rather than sit heavily on top. Soft transitions, faint overlaps and tiny irregularities remain visible, revealing the movement of water, the direction of the brush and the breathing of the canvas itself. These traces of process embody a wabi-sabi sensibility: beauty in simplicity, in warmth, and in the quiet imperfections that accumulate over time. From a distance, 砂穂 reads as a calm, almost monochrome field of earth tones. Seen up close, it reveals fine granular texture and subtle variations of hue, inviting slow looking and contemplation. The work is both minimal and tactile, bringing a grounded, meditative presence to the space it inhabits.
