Artur Płachta - Honey, life is music

Phenomenal piece of art. In this whimsical tableau, two fantastical cyclists traverse a surreal landscape, their bicycles morphing into an extraordinary blend of steampunk fantasy and vintage whimsy. The rider on the left, clad in an elegant white and red ensemble, propels forward on an oversized vinyl record, as if music itself drives his journey. Meanwhile, his vibrant counterpart is a vision of carnival exuberance, her attire a kaleidoscope of stripes and patterns that flirt with the boundary between reality and imagination. The background, a symphony of pastels, waltzes across the canvas, echoing the carefree and buoyant mood of the scene. The artist’s brushwork is playful, yet confident, a nod perhaps to the lively strokes of the Fauves. The harmonious clash of vivid hues and intricate detailing captures a sense of joyful spontaneity, inviting the viewer to embrace a world where the mundane is delightfully overturned. Artur Płachta - a cracovian painter, sculptor and graphic designer born in 1971. A diploma in sculpture clearly influenced his painting style. For many years he managed a professional art studio in Kraków. Winner of many painting reviews and awards from the Museum of Contemporary Art in Warsaw and the prestigious magazine Exit. He took part in many exhibitions in Germany, Austria, France and Romania. Hundreds of paintings and sculptures are in collections all over the world, including USA, New Zealand and even Afghanistan also in all European countries. Currently inspired by ceramic art in a funny way trying to tell about human passions. Behind the fairy-tale decorations are hidden the deepest human passions and desires. Canvas stretched on wooden frame. Colors of the painting may slightly differ from photos due to screen settings. Comes with a certificate of authenticity. Will be carefully packed in bubble wrap and cardboard. Shipping with tracking number.
