The twilight wind that breaks through the cove

Artist

Omar Saenz

Description

Oil on canvas
Unframed
Commissions available

When planning the drape paintings, I think of the human body and how it occupies a space in the world: stretching, contorting itself, feeling heavy or as light as to be floating and balancing in the air; how it intertwines with another body and holds the weight of each other. I seek to bring those dynamics into these other soft painterly bodies.

The title comes from a fragment of the novel "The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle" by Haruki Murakami.
