"Still Life" by Boris Serdyuk is a modern interpretation of the time-honored still life genre, presenting a composition that melds classical elegance with vibrant natural beauty. This oil painting, set on canvas, brings to life a classical statue of a female figure, her graceful form a study in contemplation and serenity.

A Study in Marble and Light

Rendered in the cool hues of blue and white, the statue evokes the exquisite texture of marble, its smooth surfaces playing with light and shadow to reveal the intricate details of draped clothing and gentle contours. This interplay creates a sense of depth and dimensionality, inviting the viewer to appreciate the craftsmanship and beauty of classical sculpture.

Contrast and Movement

Surrounding the statue, an abundance of white chrysanthemums bursts into view, their full blossoms offering a lively contrast to the statue's tranquility. Painted with vivacity, the chrysanthemums seem to dance around the sculpture, adding a dynamic and organic element to the still life. The warm backdrop of beige and peach tones provides a soft canvas that enhances the composition's depth, allowing the central subjects to stand out in stunning relief.

Dialogue Between the Eternal and the Ephemeral

The pairing of the timeless statue with the fleeting beauty of flowers creates a poignant dialogue between permanence and transience, art and nature. "Still Life," traditionally a depiction of inanimate objects, here captures a moment where stillness is imbued with life's vibrancy.

Impasto Technique for Immediate Impact

Employing a bold impasto technique, Serdyuk adds texture and immediacy to the work, the thick layers of paint accentuating the flowers' liveliness and the statue's draped textures. This approach not only enriches the visual experience but also emphasizes the tactile qualities inherent in the subjects.

Harmony and Balance

The composition achieves a harmonious balance, with the sculpture serving as a serene focal point around which the chrysanthemums energetically unfold. The artist's signature is subtly included, allowing the forms, colors, and textures within the painting to speak to the essence of still life art.
