"Dream in Blue Shadows" evokes a sense of contemplation and inner peace, captured in a moment of stillness. Cobalt blue and light blue seem to explore the depths of a dreamy, almost ethereal space, where time and space blur. These cool hues symbolise the serenity and mystery of the night, but also the elusiveness of thoughts and feelings hiding in the shadows. The subtle transitions between these shades of blue suggest a mental journey, an introspective quest taking place in silence.
The warmer colours-peach, coral, and beige-add a soft counterpart to the coolness of the blue. They represent the presence of feelings that lie on the edge of consciousness, just out of reach but still tangible. The use of acrylic paint with palette knife creates a layered texture that enhances the dreamlike quality, with the woman's closed eyes forming a symbolic barrier between reality and her inner world.
The closed eyes invite the viewer to dive into the dream themselves, as if the painting invites them to experience the invisible and blur the lines between dream and reality. The work speaks of a deep, introspective state of mind, in which the mind surrenders to the calmness of the blue shadows and the warmth of the unconscious. Modern Abstract.
