Dark Blue by Christian Vernier - 80cm x 80cm

“This is something that operates on a completely different level—it’s dense, labyrinthine. We’re in a mental rather than a physical space. The top of the painting is geometric, almost mechanical—rectangles, concentric circles, triangles that evoke a dashboard or a circuit board. The bottom shifts to the organic, with swirls, spirals, an emerging eye. It’s a dialogue between machine and living being, between code and dream. The electric blue holds everything together like a live wire. It brings to mind Léger, Matta, a certain kind of conceptual street art.”
