Alter Realism -Contemporary Still Life with Venus
The composition is formulated by the process subtraction thereby accentuating key aspects that then
create a new narrative of relationships. This form of approach focuses and hence brings out what would
be lost or diminished in the overall setting , and initial view.
The bust of Marie Antonette the then Queen of France looks out effectively from history. An element of a
ornamental period clock dances with time . The painting or picture plane creates a stillness through inter-
weaving of applied colour fields that provide a sense of various depths of field each dissolving into the other .
