About the artwork

The artwork unfolds as an explosion of colour and energy - a city that feels simultaneously recognisable and unreal. You look down a wide street stretching to the horizon, while towering buildings rise to the left and right in jagged, geometric planes. They do not seem fixed, but rather painted in strips and blocks of colour, as if the city is constantly moving and could shift at any moment.

On the left side, the canvas glows in warm hues: fiery reds, orange glow, deep pink reflections. It feels like that side of the city shimmers with warmth, energy and chaos. On the right side, on the other hand, cool blues, turquoise and icy greens dominate. There is a calmer, more mysterious atmosphere there, as if you see two worlds coexisting.

On the street, a stream of people moves - black silhouettes, vaguely outlined, almost like shadows walking through the colours. The wet pavement reflects the light of neon signs and buildings; the asphalt shines as if reflecting the city itself in a second dimension. In the middle, a figure walks straight into the distance, towards a blinding light source on the horizon. It is a focal point of hope, destination or perhaps even escape.

The paint seems applied in thick, expressive layers, with visible brushstrokes giving depth and texture. The eye keeps wandering, each time disappearing into a new explosion of colour and shape. The painting is at once vivid and dreamlike, a fusion of chaos and order, reality and abstraction.

It feels like a city not only seen but also felt - a vibrant heart beating to the rhythm of colour and light.
