Artwork description

This painting, Sleeping, evokes a dreamlike tension between industrial forms and human vulnerability. A massive, metallic structure dominates the scene, its curved, machine-like body pouring out streams of fiery orange and gold. The dark machinery looms against a surreal horizon, where blazing clouds and smoldering skies collide with patches of tranquil green.

Amid this overwhelming presence, a lone figure rests at the base of the structure. Dressed in muted tones, the sleeper seems both protected and consumed by the surrounding power. Their stillness contrasts sharply with the forceful motion of the spilling forms, suggesting a fragile coexistence between humanity and the monumental systems it creates.

The composition merges realism with abstraction, fusing natural and mechanical imagery into a single, uneasy vision. It speaks to the vulnerability of the human body in the shadow of industry and progress, while leaving space for ambiguity—whether this is a moment of peace, surrender, or warning.
