Description
In her painting *Philippines*, Klaudie Švrčková depicts a man holding a microphone close to his mouth. His glasses cover his eyes; his expression is focused and present. The abstract shapes in the background keep the entire scene in motion.
The artist works in her characteristic impasto style with strong contours. The gray scale strips the motif of unnecessary literalism and allows the energy of the voice and the moment to shine through.
A hand-painted original that brings rhythm, presence, and the feeling of a live performance into the space. A painting that speaks even without sound.
Acrylic with tempera.
