AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Lunar Desert — Acrylic on canvas mounted on hardboard · 51 × 51 cm · 2024

There exists a desert that only exists at night.

Inès Rouissi painted it from memory — or perhaps from a dream. Under a full moon of impossible brightness, the dunes breathe in silence. Each grain of sand bears a shadow. Each shadow bears a story. Indigo blue, the cold white of the moon, the scarce desert life clinging to the earth — this is not a landscape. It is a state of mind.

Immobile. Infinite. Overwhelming.

Made by hand in acrylic on canvas mounted on hardboard. All materials sourced from leading European suppliers. Presented in USBox — the collector chooses the white, black or ivory finish. If no reply within 48 hours, the artist selects the most fitting shade for the work. Signed front and back — the handwritten inscription on the back is a work within the work. Certificate of authenticity included. Shipped in reinforced protective packaging, insured from Riga within 24–48h.

The work was created directly in the artist's studio, presented by Abstract Art gallery. This creation naturally fits into a contemporary approach and can be featured in Inspirez-moi selections, The best live from the studio, Solo Shows and Current Trends: Rising Artists.
