About this artwork

This artwork by Martin Dammann directly channels our attention towards a figure dividing the composition. Created through a clear vanishing point, the watercolor has a granularity that gives it a 3D aesthetic contrasting with the flatness of other works. The spectral look of this work calls to mind the Rorschach test imbuing the scene with mystery.

Concerned by what images leave out, this work is deliberately enigmatic as the artist wants his viewership to reflect on the nature of images: while they are records of the past, they are always subjected to interpretation and thus non objective documents.
