Artwork description

Improvisations on themes from Hieronymus Bosch II evokes a dreamlike descent into a surreal and unsettling world. Fragmented human figures climb, fall, and struggle within a fiery backdrop of crimson, gold, and shadowed green, recalling the nightmarish visions of Bosch. The vertical format intensifies the sense of ascension and collapse, as if humanity is caught in a never-ending cycle of turmoil.

The composition weaves abstract forms with detailed narrative scenes, blurring the boundary between figuration and pure expression. Ladders, towers, and chaotic gestures emerge from glowing fields of color, dissolving into one another with both violence and grace. Light seems to pierce through, yet it does not illuminate salvation—only further confusion.

This painting becomes a meditation on chaos, temptation, and human fragility. It honors Bosch’s moral allegories while transforming them into a modern symphony of fractured shapes and emotions. The result is a vision both timeless and contemporary, where beauty and horror remain inseparably intertwined.
