This expressive painting is an explosion of colour, energy and symbolism. A raw, recognisable scene is set in an abstract background full of bright shades of pink, yellow and orange: three frothing glasses of beer, a full ashtray of cigarette butts, pressed out cigarette butts on the table and a few carelessly thrown down playing cards. The background, constructed with rough palette knife strokes and dripping layers of paint, exudes vibrancy and chaos - as if the night is still lingering on the canvas.
The work is a modern interpretation of the traditional still life, but with a contemporary twist full of street culture and rock 'n' roll. The compositional tensions between the figurative (beer, cigarettes, cards) and the abstract (paint explosions and texture) make the painting visually stimulating. The black around the glasses provides a graphic anchor amid the frenzy of colour, constantly returning the eye to the 'heart' of the scene.
The atmosphere is raw, honest and festive - an ode to nights that end in ashtrays and cards, steeped in conversation, music and alcohol.
