L'Intime ii

15 x 15

Medium: Oil and pastel on paper
Description:
Rooted in the modernist ideals of the Wiener Werkstätte, this work channels Josef Hoffmann’s pursuit of harmony between discipline and ornament. A saturated ultramarine field becomes a vessel for spontaneous pastel gestures — each line asserting individuality within a meticulously balanced space. The layered surface recalls the intersection of art and design that defined early Viennese modernism: rigorous yet lyrical, rational yet alive with human touch. The piece invites the viewer into a dynamic tension between precision and emotion — a visual composition that honors structure while celebrating the freedom of mark-making.
