About the artwork

This haunting image transports the viewer into a mystical and atmospheric landscape dominated by dark colour tones and a diffuse, misty texture. The silhouettes of two ravens can be seen in the foreground, sitting or standing on an invisible surface. Their dark forms stand out sharply against the lighter, yet muted background, lending the scene a mysterious and slightly eerie atmosphere. A third, less defined bird is hinted at in the background, reinforcing the ravens' presence and suggesting a deeper narrative.

The upper part of the painting is characterised by a deep black that gradually dissolves into a swirling mass of browns, beiges and whites. These colour gradients and textures create the impression of rising mist, smoke or a stormy cloud formation that swallows up the horizon. Small, twinkling dots that look like stars or swirling dust are scattered throughout the misty areas, adding an extra layer of depth and mystery. The composition of the painting is minimalist but powerful, focussing on the contrasts between light and shadow, presence and absence. It is a work that invites contemplation and encourages the viewer to reflect on the symbolism of ravens - often associated with wisdom, mystery or omens - and the vastness of the landscape depicted. The abstract elements of the background merge seamlessly with the concrete silhouettes of the birds, creating an image of timeless beauty and profound meaning.
