The digital artwork *Fruit bowl with fruit* depicts a hushed, almost meditative still life in which shape, colour and light subtly come together. At the centre is a large, elegantly shaped glass fruit bowl, placed on an evenly coloured cabinet with a neutral hue. The background is formed by a plain plastered wall, which enhances the simplicity and tranquillity of the composition.
The bowl contains tangerines, bananas and a bunch of grapes. Due to the transparent glass, the fruits are visible partially distorted; their shapes seem to undulate and merge with the glass, giving the work a slightly surreal character. The colour accents of the fruit - the warm orange of the tangerines, the soft yellow of the bananas and the deep purple of the grapes - contrast subtly with the cool, neutral surroundings, creating a visual balance.
Light plays an important role in the image. It falls in sideways and creates soft reflections on the smooth glass surface, with shimmers and glints emphasising the three-dimensionality of the bowl. At the same time, the fruit bowl casts a modest shadow on the surface of the cabinet, anchoring the work in its space and contributing to its realistic atmosphere.
Although digitally produced, the work exudes a timeless calm reminiscent of classic still lifes. Through the interplay of transparency, distortion and light, *Fruit bowl with fruit* invites the viewer to pay attention and stillness.
