About the artwork

Dream Bloom is an abstract, dreamy depiction of floral beauty captured in a play of colour, texture and light. The composition shows a vase filled with stylised flowers, each rendered in soft, greying tones such as creamy white, warm brown, powder pink and light grey. The flowers do not seem to represent a specific species, but rather a collection of memories or feelings - as if they have blossomed from a dream world, free of botanical rules.

What immediately stands out is the dynamism of the background: powerful rays in mustard yellow, ochre, aubergine purple and pastel pink fan out behind the bouquet. These bands of light suggest an explosion of energy or perhaps an inner glow radiating outwards. Despite these pronounced rays, the work retains a certain calmness, partly due to the matt, textured paint layers and the use of saturated but soft colours.

The title Dream Bloom refers not only to the unreal, almost surreal look of the flowers, but also to the process of personal growth that takes place in silence and in depth - just like dreams. Here, the vase acts as a symbolic vessel of the subconscious: thought flowers rise from its simple form, fuelled by light and imagination.

The work exudes an atmosphere of introspection and longing. It is at once powerful and vulnerable, bright and mysterious. Dream Bloom invites the viewer to dwell on what blossoms inwardly, even if it does not yet have a fixed form in reality. Surrealist, modern abstract, field of flowers.
