Monochrome

Status: in private collection Price: n/a SIze: 30 x 20 cm Technique: mixed media Description: This black-and-white composition blends folklore, religious iconography, and a touch of the surreal. A grand feast unfolds beneath a blossoming tree, with clergy and noble figures gathered around an abundant table. Towering over them is a domed Orthodox church, nestled in a peaceful countryside, its presence evoking timeless spiritual traditions. Yet, beneath the serene surface, shadowy, hooded figures lurk—watching, waiting, and subtly disturbing the harmony of the scene. The mountains and village in the background add depth, reinforcing the contrast between the sacred and the unknown. The monochrome palette heightens the dreamlike, almost mythical atmosphere, turning the scene into a reflection on ritual, faith, and the unseen forces that surround human gatherings.
