Description
Universe I – A Spiral That Pulls You to Its Centre
A single gigantic concentric spiral fills the entire canvas – like the rings of a tree, ripples on water, or the vortex of a galaxy. The painting is meditative and completely neutral in colour: from a silver-white core through greyish beige tones to brown and dark grey edges.
Technique & Texture
Dense, ribbed ridges drawn with a palette knife run in circles like the grooves of a vinyl record; tiny incisions here and there catch the light. It is a hand-painted artistic painting – the artist drew each circle in a single sweep, which can be seen in motion in the video above.
The Motif
The bright, silver-white core sits slightly left of the canvas centre and glows outward; the light fades with each ring until it settles into dark brown at the edges. Right of the core, two tiny dark knots interrupt the regularity of the rings – like knots in wood that make the spiral alive.
Styling & Placement
A completely neutral palette means the painting suits any interior – from Scandinavian to industrial. Its hypnotic circling comes alive most beautifully above a sofa, a bed, or in a meditative corner.
