Description from the seller
A red brick facade in New York at blue hour. On the fire escape, a woman in a green kimono and white jumpsuit, bare legs, smokes as she looks down at the street. Behind her, in the lit kitchen, a man in a tank top dines alone. In the nearby window, a couple silhouettes kiss; upstairs a boy watches all of it, finger on his lips. Laundry hanging on a line, a water tower cutting the sky, a yellow taxi passing in the foreground.
Le Yack stacks the stories like floors: the solitary meal, the kiss, the spying child, the woman waiting for something, not knowing what. Each window is a panel within the painting. It’s the city as theater, seen from the opposite sidewalk, with that mix of tenderness and voyeurism that city nights in summer bring.
Dense, warm painting: brick laid in small strokes, the satin green of the kimono in glossy glazes, the bare kitchen light radiating on the walls. The deep blue of the sky against the yellow of the taxi holds the whole range.
