Oriental Blue by Patrick Joosten is an abstract canvas where color becomes a powerful sensory experience of a dreamlike Orient. The work is dominated by deep shades of blue that run throughout its palette, oscillating between dark and brighter blues, in a subtle gradation that evokes both the mysterious depth of the Orient.
Bursts of dark red, vermillion, earthy bottle green, and pastel green introduce a striking contrast, as if bursts of passion or fire were emerging from the calm blue. These bursts of color energize the work.
Oriental Blue is thus an invitation to contemplation, a space between dream and reality, where colors, carried by subtle contrasts, create a mysterious and captivating atmosphere.
