Figure XX - Iryna Depko
Oil on canvas, 2022
100 x 70 cm
Description: The painting "Figure XX" is one of the most important works of the series "Figures" by Iryna Depko. As one of the latest paintings of the Ukrainian artist, it fascinates with its unusual composition: the depicted female figure is not seen in the usual sitting position, but lies in a completely abstract space, which directs the focus to the aesthetics and the pose of the figure. The viewer seems to take a bird's eye view and witnesses a possibly sleeping person. Particularly noteworthy in this work are the colors, in which shades of blue and purple are harmoniously combined and contrast clearly with the figure.
„Die Bildkomposition dieses Gemäldes ist äußerst faszinierend und lässt mich in ein neues künstlerisches Erlebnis eintauchen. Durch die ungewöhnliche Bildperspektive und die abstrakte Umgebung wird der Blick sofort auf die liegende Frauenfigur gelenkt, die in ihrer ästhetischen und entspannten Pose verharrt.“
- Iris von Arthentico
