AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

- PRIMAL -
ORIGINAL Painting, character portraiture by ARVY

The painting is 100% hand-painted using highly pigmented artist-grade acrylic paints and finished with a UV-protective satin varnish. It is created on unprimed, firm, robust, and kink-resistant gallery-quality canvas (360 g/m²) without a stretcher frame.
Dimensions: 125x106 cm (entire canvas)

Artwork Overview:

This painting draws from neo-expressionism, ritual symbolism, and the visual language of ancient cave art. The figure appears as a primal totem not a character, but a psychological marker shaped by instinct, repetition, and unconscious memory.

Childlike drawings, symbolic creatures, and raw signs echo early human rituals, where image-making functioned as communication, protection, and invocation.
The composition operates on a subconscious level.
Rough lines and simplified forms bypass rational interpretation, activating archetypal recognition linked to power, fear, play, and survival.

The crown-like shape and ritual markings suggest self-constructed authority and the human impulse to give form to inner forces.

Created with deliberate imperfection, this work resists decoration and functions as a collectible statement piece. It is designed to hold presence within a contemporary interior while rewarding deeper psychological engagement over time.

Details:
Canvas dimensions: 122x106 cm, with additional 5 cm on each side for stretching
Suggested frame size: 112x96 cm
Important: Please wait to order a stretcher frame until the artwork arrives to ensure accurate measurements.
Style: abstract portrait, maintaining its visual impact when stretched
Signed by ARVY on the front, and dated with signature on the back.
Shipping & Packaging:

Carriers:
DPD, GLS, UPS, PostNL, FedEx, or LP EXPRESS
Packaging: Securely rolled and packed in both a protective tube and a sturdy box, as shown in the photo, to ensure safe and professional delivery.

Certificate of Authenticity:
Yes, included and hand-signed by the artist.

Canvas & Composition Notes:
The artwork includes 5 cm margins on all sides, continuing the design, making it ready for professional stretching. These margins ensure the painting flows seamlessly onto the edges, adding to its visual appeal even without a frame. Consulting a framer is advised for the best results.

ARVY has successfully shipped over 850+ artworks worldwide, earning praise from collectors and art lovers alike. Each piece is crafted with attention to detail, ensuring satisfaction with every purchase.

Artist Bio:
ARVY is a fourth-generation artist continuing a family legacy of visual and performance art. He studied painting at an art college, graduating in 2016, and has been active in the art world ever since.

He has successfully shipped over 850+ artworks worldwide, earning praise from collectors and art lovers alike. Each piece is crafted with attention to detail, ensuring satisfaction with every purchase.

Raised in a creative household, ARVY began his artistic path in childhood while assisting his father — painter, illusionist and performer Arvydas Gaičiūnas ( Retne ), co-founder of Magic Theater DiArchy. This early exposure to both visual art and stage performance shaped his distinctive, theatrical sensibility.

ARVY’s work is eclectic and emotionally charged, blending elements of contemporary expressionism, symbolism, street energy, and poetic abstraction. His pieces explore contrasts — chaos and harmony, intuition and control — reflecting the pulse of modern life through vivid color and raw gesture.

He has exhibited internationally and his works are held in private collections across Europe. Beyond painting, ARVY is also known for his creative versatility as a musician and digital creator, bringing the same intensity and imagination to sound, movement, and image.

Thank you for considering ARVY’s work. His art is sure to be a standout addition to any collection of modern or contemporary art!
