蒼 Ultramarine pigment and mixed media on canvas 100cm x 140cm (39 inches x 55 inches) 蒼 (Ao) is an exceptional monochrome painting by the contemporary artist VITYRA, known for his distinctive material-based approach and serene, minimal compositions. This work is executed on a fine cotton canvas, measuring 100 cm in width and 140 cm in height, with an additional border for stretching and framing. The piece carries a strong physical presence through its scale and depth of color, while maintaining the quiet elegance that defines VITYRA’s practice. The intense, vibrant ultramarine blue seen here is the result of months of material experimentation. The artist created this unique color using rare pigments and specific chemical compounds imported from France, closely resembling the legendary blue of Yves Klein. The surface has a matte, powdered finish that captures and diffuses light in subtle ways, revealing delicate variations and depth across the monochrome field. As with all of VITYRA’s works, the philosophy of wabi-sabi—the beauty of imperfection and transience—is subtly present. Minor irregularities within the pigment and texture reveal the hand of the artist, enhancing the authenticity and individuality of the piece. 蒼 stands as a meditation on color, purity, and presence—a work that evokes silence, invites reflection, and commands a striking visual power within any collection or interior. This original painting by VITYRA is discreetly hand-signed on the reverse side to preserve the purity of the artwork’s surface and comes with a Certificate of Authenticity. VITYRA is represented by S-Gallery, a well-known gallery for Viennese boundary-pushing contemporary artists. The artwork will be shipped rolled in a secure, protective tube—an eco-friendly and safe method that reduces shipping costs and risk of damage. The canvas measures 100 x 140 cm (39 x 55 inches), with an extra 5 cm border on each side for easy re-stretching. Frame placement is lightly marked on the back to assist precise mounting.
