In "Three times Matisse" a triptych unfolds in which the essence of the number three is central, both in name and form. Composed of triangles, this painting uses the most stable and dynamic form to tell a story of balance, movement and tranquillity. The work is a tribute to the art of balancing forms and meaning, in which each triangle highlights a different facet of life.
The three silhouettes within these triangular compositions symbolise the cyclical nature of existence and creativity, which Matisse so masterfully captured in his work. From the meditative calm of the seated figure, through the dynamic energy of the dancing figure, to the contemplative pose of the figure at rest - each figure contributes to a harmonious dialogue between art and life itself.
The background, a play of light and shadow within the triangular areas, emphasises the depth and complexity of this interaction. The colourful harmony and powerful shapes create a captivating visual rhythm that invites the viewer to explore the deeper layers of interpretation.
"Three times Matisse" is a work of art that celebrates not only the influence of a great artist, but also the universal principles of geometry and harmony that are so deeply embedded in our perception of beauty and art.
