Artwork Description

Large‚ surrealist landscape. A panorama of a beach‚ beneath a cool blue sky. A towering eco lightbulb rises above the rocks‚ sand‚ sea and sunbathers.

The rocks‚ sea and sand are painted in broad‚ expressionistic brushstrokes. The many little figures are the result of finer brushwork. Many colours and tones are used for the skin tones‚ bathing suits‚ towels‚ bags‚ etc.

The scene is both a Utopia - endless fun and leisure - and a dystopia - the absence of a sun‚ the strange tower‚ the pensive woman in the lower left. What is this place? What lengths have these people gone to achieve their lifestyles?

This painting was included in my 'Endless Summer' show at Me Art Space‚ St Leonards‚ Sydney.
