Living room Horizon by Zen and More

Living Room Horizon - This dune painting fits perfectly in a modern living room or a quiet hallway where you are looking for colour harmony and softness without embellishment. Picture it above a light linen sofa, against a wall of natural wallpaper or in an open-plan living kitchen between wood and stone - the dune painting brings depth and a stillness that is at once warm and slightly dramatic. It is a landscape painting that works well in bedrooms and reading corners, but also in design-oriented homes where the painting is an understated eye-catcher; it acts as a connecting layer between furniture and materials, exactly as a good lamp does, but quieter.

As a painting dunes, you first see the large, rounded shapes of sand dunes: soft ridges, shadows and bright spots where light glides across the sand. Small, almost graphic, are the dark bushes and low trees that give rhythm to the composition - they act as black commas in an otherwise serene landscape. Above the dunes hangs a massive sky hull of clouds, painted in broad washes and dry brushstrokes; cool greys and creams blend together, with a warm ocker background warming the whole. Technically, this is an abstract landscape: layers of paint, subtle grain and here and there a rough touch reminiscent of grains of sand. The choice of limited use of colour and the play of light and dark is deliberate: the dune painting reduces recognition to its essence - no details that distract, but textures and rhythm that invite you to keep looking. The small golden splashes and matt surfaces add a bit of playfulness, as if there had been wind, but the stillness remained.
