Artist Statement
The old armchairs with their purple velvet upholstery, worn out over time, gave the idea for this artwork.
This painting is made in violet and gold. Depending on the direction of the light the work makes a various visual effect: direct sunlight makes the shine of gold active and the painting looks lighter, while if the light comes in from the side it emphasizes the deep shades of violet. The sides of the canvas are part of the composition, so the painting is ready to hang without an additional frame. The canvas is signed on the back.
