AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Igor Kashlyak – “Photograph as a Memory”, 1998

This atmospheric abstract painting by Igor Kashlyak explores the fragile boundary between memory and image. The composition emerges from a deep, dark background, where layered textures and muted tones evoke the feeling of a fading photograph—an echo of moments once vivid, now partially obscured by time.

Subtle yet expressive brushstrokes create a sense of depth and movement, while restrained accents of red, yellow, green, and blue punctuate the surface like emotional fragments breaking through the darkness. The painting invites the viewer to pause and reflect, allowing personal memories and interpretations to surface.

Executed in 1998, the work reflects a mature, introspective period of the artist, characterized by abstraction, emotional restraint, and strong material presence. The large format enhances its visual impact, making it a powerful statement piece for contemporary interiors or collections focused on late 20th-century abstract art.

Year: 1998
