About this work
A woman with braided hair flies through a dark night sky, wrapped in a dark, voluminous cloak that spills across the canvas. She grips a long, blade-like white object while a second figure behind her raises a flute to her lips. Below, a river landscape holds dark wooded banks, a domed church, and a pale statue on a pedestal in shallow water.
Deep blues and blacks fill the night sky, set against warm orange in the flying figure's sleeve and pale glow of skin and statue. Forms are smoothed and simplified in a dreamlike, surreal manner. The mood is eerie and mysterious, suspended between flight and myth.
