MARINA under CONSTRUCTION
This vibrant abstract painting of a marina in the development phase, with a shimmering blue ocean stands not only as a visual feast but as a profound environmental commentary on modern society's manipulation of coastlines. The suggestion of towering edifices reflect society's insatiable thirst for ocean view real estate and construction of marinas to accommodate the coastal lifestyle and marine activities.
The surface materiality is dominated by an array pencil marks and lines, it serves as an allegorical reminder of the way we continually reshape the natural world to satisfy our desires and materialism. The numbers epitomize the calculated nature of these developments. They are the builders' cold calculations, suggesting the rationalization of nature's inherent value.
This abstract painting invites us to reflect on the ongoing conflict between human desire and environmental preservation. It's more than just a representation of a marina; it's an emotional and philosophical exploration of our relationship with the coastal environment. It asks us to ponder the costs of our continuous construction, our never-ending chase for pleasure, and our disregard for the very environment that provides these treasures.
This painting is a very modern, contemporary abstract work that would look fantastic hanging in your home.
