Title: Cello Concerto 2025
Technique: Mixed technique with ducats double gold 23 carat, glowing in the night
Size: 120 × 100 cm
Date: 2025
“Cello Concerto 2025” is a painting that is not merely seen, but heard. At its core vibrates the presence of the cello, an instrument whose voice resembles the human one: deep, warm, and introspective. Reds and golds suggest the resonant body of sound, as if the cello itself had dissolved into the space of the canvas.
The seemingly chaotic lines evoke vibrating strings and sonic waves moving through the air. They form an emotional score rather than a musical one, recording impulses, tensions, and releases. The golden spiral elements function as focal points: moments of concentration, where sound thickens, slows, and sinks into silence.
Under natural light, the painting reveals its physicality and gesture: the energy of movement and the drama of color. Under UV light, a hidden dimension emerges. Fluorescent lines appear like a luminous afterimage of sound, an invisible melody suddenly made visible. In complete darkness, the painting glows differently still: quietly, internally, as if holding the memory of music rather than its immediate presence.
This work speaks of the fusion of senses. Sound becomes light, emotion becomes movement, music becomes image. “Cello Concerto 2025” is a visual reflection on music as an experience that is fleeting, yet profoundly enduring.
