Three-dimensional canvas

This powerful contemporary work captures the essence of a universal symbol: the dollar. The black, minimalist and deep canvas serves as the backdrop for a bold and immediate representation, where the brush, in an unusual way, is not just a tool but becomes an integral part of the artistic process. The drawing of the dollar emerges from the canvas right where the brush left its mark, creating an almost surreal effect, as if the painterly gesture were still taking shape.

The canvas, in contrast to the luminous drawing of the dollar, evokes a sense of mystery and introspection, leaving room for the viewer to reflect on the meaning of money in modern society. The act of leaving the brush attached to the canvas, suspended in its movement, suggests a work that is in constant evolution, as if the creative process were still ongoing and the value of the dollar were something dynamic and never static.

The work is a digital painting on 350 g/m² canvas, worked with acrylic paint to give the impression of a three-dimensional brushstroke.
The brush is firmly attached to the canvas with screws.

"It is never easy to classify one’s own art; I try to convey what my eyes see, my way of perceiving what surrounds me, and I rework it with a design that blends well with modern times: impactful and memorable."
