About this artwork+
This painting by Inesa Škeliova, titled "Geometry 2," is a vivid exploration of shapes and colors. It is packed with a variety of geometric forms. These shapes overlap and intersect, creating a dynamic array of colors. The colors range from bright lime greens and oranges to deep blues and reds. Some shapes even contain scribbles and texture details, adding depth and interest. Škeliova’s style in this work blends elements of abstract art with an emphasis on geometry. The painting’s bold color palette and lively forms are reminiscent of cubism, yet it caries a distinct, expressive edge that is perhaps unique to Škeliova’s artistic vision. Her use of thick, visible brushstrokes and a layered composition conveys a sense of movement within the confines of the canvas. This piece feels alive, almost as if the shapes are in a state of constant motion.
