How can I explain...It's just like if the black and blue background gave birth to the black and blue aubergine! Cosmic. And the stalk like the open mouth of a cruel green snake symbolizing the womb. And Finally, this white light which enables and identifies the borning vegetable. Well, this is not a still life but a " still birth", a new kind of painting.
I did this morning an enlargement of the green stalk on my personal computer : the work of the painter is riveting ; countless tint , dexterity of the brushstrokes, sharpness of the watching, elegance of the shape, frieze looking,and this sharp white reflection making a virtual horizontal with the big white light on the top of the eggplant...finally , like a star( or a planet?) twinkling in the abyssal nocturnal sky, this very tiny clear orangery dot ending the stalk on the left end of it. Extreme stylihness.
