Chopin

An emotive art piece that plunges into the psyche of the renowned composer, Frédéric Chopin. Through a stunning blend of colors and elements, this piece visually represents how Chopin, known for his introverted nature, would seek solace in his piano, particularly his emotionally-laden preludes. The artwork’s focal point is a tear, meticulously constructed using a triad of colors, symbolizing the depth of emotions flowing through Chopin. Additionally, the face, depicted in a singular hue, portrays a sense of detachment with the nose turned away from the piano, while the eye engages the viewer, seeking understanding and connection.

The background’s amalgamation of three colors sets a poignant tone, harmonizing with the piece's central theme. Accompanying the art piece is a contemporary poem, which converses with ‘Freddy’ (Chopin), appreciating the enchanting yet painful world he shared through his music. #507 Chopin is an eloquent tribute, thanking the maestro for the timeless gift of his music.

yes it’s there mom goddammit what are you blind?

An introspective and captivating self-portrait by Zen Dageraad Visser. A symphony of symbolism and self-reflection, this piece embarks on a journey into the artist's inner world. The canvas is adorned with sweeping locks of hair, representing not only a physical attribute but also an allegory for how the artist’s tresses often cloud his own vision. Adding a dash of humor and desire, a pronounced moustache takes center stage, underlining Zen's personal aspirations.

Additionally, the artist's eyes are veiled behind glasses, which may signify a protective barrier due to his introverted nature or a simple divergence from his usual 'Kees van Dongen' style eyes. The background intermingles three harmonious colors, subtly whispering of complexity and unity.

Accompanying the artwork is a whimsical poem, which reinforces the elements and adds depth to the narrative. Through light-hearted verse, it invites viewers to experience the essence of Zen, who symbolically dawns as a reflection of everyman. In #508 Zen, Dageraad Visser brilliantly intertwines raw self-portrayal with evocative symbolism.
