Nightblue is an original mixed-media expressionist work by Petra Erengil, a 100 × 30 cm canvas from 2026, hand-signed, in excellent condition, depicting a night scene in blue with energetic texture, sold directly by the artist and accompanied by an authenticity certificate.
Description from the seller
Luminous threads run through the architecture as if the city were breathing. Abstract and powerfully condensed, movement, stillness, and urban tension cohere into a moment between reality and feeling.
Erengil confidently and expressively relies on color, signaling a strong sense of harmony and contrast. The artist's palette consists of radiant blue and yellow and softer, more atmospheric hues that display emotional and spontaneous shifts. Shapes appear in rhythmic and energetic compositions, as forms are defined through gestural and impasto techniques. The varied treatment through multiple layers of acrylic and oil gives the piece its textured and immediate quality. The artist’s diverse mixed media support further exploration of the corporeality of a work. The pull/redirect between abstraction and figuration provides a structure and thus an intoxicating sensory quality that a viewer can perceive. Petra Erengil transforms traditional themes by adding life and emotion through vibrant texture and color.
