In this painting it is zigzag lines that form the geometric component and the hard, pointed edges are in stark contrast to the wonderfully soft and sweet floral elements. It's wild, explosive, sweet, joyful, beautiful and yet cool, deep and rich in contrast and this has a lot to do with the artist. The love for nature, yes, for life itself, despite all external and adverse circumstances - that is the core message of this painting! Don't give up, no matter how hard and cutting the edges and tips are! In this originally very blue-heavy abstract painting, the artist deliberately used geometric elements such as these blue zigzag lines to subdivide and structure the surface. In between and above, however, beautiful abstract flowers swing, float and dance, which draw the viewer's gaze across the surface. The flowers seem to want to tease the strict elements, so they wrap around the zigzag lines.
