"Sortera" draws inspiration from the juxtaposition of a well-tended garden and the discarded items often found in a yard or amidst trash. It explores the abstract shapes that can be discovered in unlikely places, encouraging viewers to reconsider the beauty in the mundane.
This piece is a reflection on the process of sorting and finding order in chaos.
The finished artwork evokes feelings of interest, openness, fun, and playfulness. "Sortera" encourages viewers to explore the idea of finding order and aesthetics in what might be considered disorder or trash. It prompts us to look at the world with fresh eyes, discovering the hidden treasures and abstract beauty in the most unexpected places.
The color palette includes a combination of green, yellow, orange, and purples, set against the dramatic backdrop of black paper. These colors represent the vitality of the garden and the vibrancy of the objects that may seem like trash at first glance. The vivid palette adds a sense of intrigue and playfulness to the composition.
The creative process is fast and intuitive. I begin by painting with a sense of spontaneity, allowing my emotions and creative intuition to guide me. As the artwork evolve, I revisit it to add details and pencil drawings, giving depth and complexity to the abstract forms.
