“Nostalgia” – 2015. By Maicon Gimenes
Oil on canvas, 60 x 50 cm, 23 x 19 in.
Private Collection, Salzburg Austria.
A rustic room with depth perspective, devoid of possessions, depicts a lost sense of contentment of the mind. The shining light entering through the distant door opening evokes the nostalgia. It is longing for a bright and a sustainable future. An endemic plant of great beauty, the orchid, represents the vulnerability of the ecosystem. Its fluorescent green blooms question the ethics of humans manipulating nature.
