AcrylicDescription
The abstract painting “Nosso Lar (Astral City)” depicts a predominantly pastel colour palette, featuring soft hues of pink, blue, yellow, and white. The composition is airy and open, with ethereal, ghost-like figures and shapes that appear to be in motion, blending into the background. The figures are suggested rather than defined, giving the impression of a crowd, or gathering, but with an elusive, dreamlike quality. The painting is seemingly inspired by the 2010 movie “Astral City: A Spiritual Journey,” evokes a sense of calmness and serenity, representing a mix of intertwined scenes of otherworldly afterlife presence, like a string of memories fading into obscurity. The style is reminiscent of abstract expressionism, with a focus on emotional expression through colour and form rather than realistic depiction. The painting could be likened to the works of artists such as Mark Rothko or Willem de Kooning, known for their abstract and expressive techniques.Try it!
