About the artwork

This composition shows a carefully constructed pile of smooth river stones, placed in a serene natural setting with a babbling river in the background. The colours in the work, which range from warm oranges and reds in the background to cool blues in the water and stones, reinforce the sense of harmony and balance conveyed. The style of the work shows influences of both cubism, seen in the facets of the surrounding rocks and trees, and minimalism, visible in the simple yet meaningful arrangement of the stones.

The lighting and choice of colours evoke memories of the tranquil landscapes of well-known artists such as Georgia O'Keeffe, who also often worked with subtle shades of natural tones. The artworks of Andy Goldsworthy, with their emphasis on natural forms and textures, can also serve as inspiration for this piece.

This work would look wonderful in a space that exudes tranquillity and meditation, such as a bedroom, yoga or meditation studio. The sculpture invites reflection and provides a visual anchor for moments of calm. With the timeless and universal appeal of nature combined with modern art styles, this artwork fits into a variety of interior styles, from modern to rural. It can bring a sense of serenity and connection with nature no matter where it is hung.
