More about this artwork

"Ramybė II" (2017) by Arūnas Rutkus is a striking and allegorical painting that captivates the observer with its dreamlike and ethereal qualities. This artwork masterfully utilizes a monochromatic palette, dominated by golden and brown hues, that adds a layer of warmth and depth to the scene.The painting presents a mysterious figure, draped in an ornate, golden fabric that blends intricate patterns with a soft, textile texture that seems to glow under a subtle, ambient light. This figure is portrayed in a somewhat surreal manner – the head is obscured, giving the impression of anonymity or universality, while the expressive hands are emphasized, reaching out in a gesture that might suggest yearning or connection."Ramybė II" invites the viewer into a tranquil, almost otherworldly realm, where the details in the fabric capture attention with their lavish intricacy. The patterns on the fabric can be seen as symbolic, potentially alluding to the complexities of life or the interwoven nature of our experiences. The overall composition and the poised, graceful posture of the figure convey a sense of peace and contemplation.Through this painting, Arūnas Rutkus challenges the viewer to introspect and find tranquility amidst the portrayal, making it a profound piece for reflection.
