Acrylic palette knife painting80 × 150 cmHeight × width · canvas
In this painting, I sought to capture the energy and unceasing rhythm of New York, where lights and reflections merge into an almost hypnotic motion. I wanted to convey the city’s urban pulse, the vibration of colour, and the contrast between chaos and harmony. My semi-figurative and semi-abstract style, with vertical lines and geometric shapes, aims to evoke movement, time, and the city’s intensity. The impasto technique adds body and texture to the light.
