This piece "Dracula orchid" in a vintage brass frame as seen in the 2nd image. The final dimensions are 10 x 13.5 cm.
It's ode to the long tradition of dutch still life painting. Emerging out of the midnight-black void, the subjects allude to the transitory nature of existence; to life and death. It is time suspended.
Still life asks us to stop and consider the world anew and take simple pleasure in the familiar things in life and discover depths in it. It urges us to look closely and observe. Something that we are not used to doing anymore. Still life contrasts with our lives today which are dynamic, moving and constantly shifting.
