The World of Atlas | The Heavy Burden on a Pink Ground
4000 ILS
'The World of Atlas' carries the mythological burden into present-day life. Classical figures in shades of grey bear an ancient weight against a vivid, living pink ground, and a poetic line accompanies the scene, prompting thoughts on human suffering. The contrast between the monochrome grey and the glowing pink asks how a person keeps carrying their world when the surroundings insist on looking light. Painted in 2022, 70 × 100 cm, oil on canvas, signed and accompanied by a certificate of authenticity. A painting that joins a classical image with daring color, suited to a contemporary space, a living room or a study that wants a work with an idea and not only a palette. Available to buy or rent directly from Eliran Bar-On's studio.
