About the artwork

The digital artwork *Montmartre* shows a minimalist yet atmospheric cityscape, emphasising the summer sky that occupies most of the composition. The sky is clear and light blue, interrupted only by two softly shaped, white clouds that give the image a sense of airiness and space. This open, calm background contrasts subtly with the underside of the artwork, where the top of a large house is visible.

The house is rendered with clean lines and geometric arrangement. Five windows with white frames dominate the facade. Behind the glass, black and green surfaces alternate rhythmically, reminiscent of closed and half-opened shutters or the play of light and shadow inside.

Above the windows is the roof, divided into even sections, evoking a sense of order and structure. The roof also supports several chimneys - two on the left and six distributed elsewhere - each with distinctive small red pipes protruding above them. These red accents bring vibrancy and a touch of playfulness to the otherwise subdued colour scheme.

The composition evokes a sense of stillness, as if the moment has been frozen in the middle of a hot summer day. At the same time, the presence of the house and chimneys evokes a human presence, without directly depicting people. The work is an ode to the everyday cityscape, captured in a digital and slightly abstract perspective.
